About Sandra Gordon

I’m the author of Consumer Reports Best Baby Products and the mom of two. Besides baby products, which I write about in this blog, I also cover health, nutrition and parenting for major national magazines such as Parents, Prevention, Ladies Home Journal, Fitness and ShopSmart, Consumer Report’s shopping magazine.

I’ve written the 8th, 9th and 10th editions of Consumer Reports Best Baby Products and I’ve been covering the industry extensively since 2003, when my second daughter was 20 months old. I’ve found that although baby products are constantly evolving, many of the basic safety principles stay the same and apply to multigenerations of products. New items you add to your home that aren’t even baby related can also add another level of childproofing. In any event, Consumer Reports Best Baby Products will hopefully provide a voice of reason. I hope this blog will also give you the opportunity to share your thoughts about baby products and how they’ve helped you (or not) take care of your baby and make parenting easier or more fun.
