Nicole Avery is the master organiser behind the popular parenting blog – that’s me! I have been blogging at Planning with Kids for over 4 years now and it is where I shares tips and tricks to organising the chaos of family life. My Where To Start page on the blog will give you a taste of what I write about and what readers have liked!

My first book, Planning with Kids, was released in May 2011 by Wright Books. The blog now attracts over 100,000 unique visitors a month.

As well as blogging I am also a sought after speaker and coach on areas from blogging and social media to home organisation and planning. You can see more about this on the relevant pages – speaking and blog coach.

I live in an inner eastern suburb of Melbourne, Australia with my gorgeous husband and our five amazing kids. Before children, I completed a Business Degree, majoring in Finance. The bulk of my working career prior to kids was spent at a large telecommunciations company. I had a number of different roles, key ones being Performance Manager, Call Centre Manager and Project Manager. I stepped away from corporate life in 2001 to focus on my family.

In January 2008 I started my online presence with my main blog Planning With Kids. Since then I have gone on to create niche blogs and also a coaching blog to help other bloggers gain success in the Aussie Mummy Blogging niche.
