Let us introduce ourselves...

Who We Are...

Hi! I’m Sarah – mum of two young boys, lover of travel (yes, even with the kids!), seeker of new experiences and the voice behind Little Family Diaries.

We live in Cheshire, in the North West of England, and are always on the lookout for our next adventure – whether that’s exploring somewhere new in the UK or heading further afield.

I truly believe that although little ones might not always remember the places we take them, those experiences shape who they become. We want our boys to grow up seeing and experiencing as much of the world as possible – whether it’s through immersing themselves in the culture of another country or simply getting muddy on a wander through the forest.

Our Story...

My husband and I have always loved exploring new places – we actually met while backpacking around Thailand and spent the early years of our relationship long distance. Not only did we clock up a lot of miles travelling back and forth across the UK, but our shared love of adventure took us all over the world – from Bali and European city breaks to unforgettable safaris across Africa.

But when I first became a mum, it felt like life hit pause. The world suddenly felt unfamiliar and for a while, I wasn’t sure if we were still meant to be out there exploring it. Of course, we were – it just took time (and a bit of courage) to realise it. Slowly, I found my confidence again – and with it came an even stronger urge to get back out there. This time though, we had little legs beside us. And honestly? They have become our favourite adventures ever since!

Why We Are Here...

I know just how busy and chaotic life can be as a parent – the to do lists never end, the mental load is never over and planning a trip (even a simple day out!) can sometimes feel more stressful than it’s worth. That’s exactly why I created this blog: to help make family adventures feel easier, more achievable and a lot more fun (even for us parents too!).

Whether you’re planning a UK staycation or your first holiday abroad with little ones, this space is here to inspire and support you. You’ll find honest reviews, helpful itineraries, real life tips and family friendly recommendations that we’ve tried and tested ourselves – with a few wobbles and wins along the way.

We hope this blog becomes your go to when you’re looking for your next family experience – big or small – and that it helps take the stress out of planning, so you can focus on making memories instead.

Adventure shouldn’t stop just because we have children – it is really just the beginning!

Let's Go On An Adventure Together...
