About Minimelia
Hey there! I'm Emma, and this is where I share the real deal about baby and toddler products. No fluff, just honest thoughts from one parent to another.
What This Is All About
Look, parenting is hard enough without having to guess which products actually work. I test things with my own kids so you don't have to waste your money on stuff that doesn't deliver.
Real Testing
I actually use these products with my two little ones. If it doesn't work in real life with real kids, you'll know about it.
Parent to Parent
This isn't some corporate blog. It's just me, sharing what works and what doesn't, because we're all figuring this out together.
No BS Reviews
I'll tell you exactly what I think. If something's overpriced or doesn't work, I'm not going to sugarcoat it.
My Story
So here's the thing. I'm Emma, originally from Norway but now living in the Netherlands with my partner and our two kids who are just 16 months apart. Yeah, that was... intense.
When I had my first, I bought so much stuff that promised to make life easier. Half of it ended up in storage after a week. Then baby number two came along, and suddenly I had to figure out what actually worked for two kids at different stages.
That's when I realized how much money I'd wasted on products that looked great online but were useless in real life. So I started Minimelia to share what I've learned, hoping to save other parents from the same expensive mistakes.
How I Do Things
The Good and Bad
If something sucks, I'll tell you. If it's amazing, you'll know that too. No point in pretending everything is perfect.
Kids Come First
I'm not messing around when it comes to safety. If there's any doubt, I won't recommend it.
Tested by Chaos
My kids don't use products gently. If it survives in our house, it'll probably work for you too.
Actually Useful
I focus on stuff that makes your life easier, not just things that look pretty on Instagram.
No Hidden Agenda
I buy most of this stuff myself. When brands send me things, I'll tell you, but it doesn't change my opinion.
For Real Budgets
Not everyone can afford the fanciest stuff. I review products across all price ranges because good doesn't always mean expensive.
