Renaissance mom builds bridges with Italiakids.com

Press Release 25 May 2008

Italiakids.com was launched in spring 2008 by Shannon Venable, an academic editor specializing in Europe. As a busy mother with strong ties to Italy, Venable developed Italiakids.com as an online reference publication that centralizes resources and information for international families abroad, with a particular view to fostering channels of bicultural support.

In addition to articles of interest for families, Italiakids.com provides a wide variety of listings by city and region, including events, childcare, English-speaking medical practitioners, family-friendly hotels and restaurants, parks and playgrounds, and extracurricular activities, among many others. The site also includes a parent forum for sharing ideas or making inquiries.

As the global community increasingly expands, carefully-edited online resources like Italiakids.com will prove to be a valuable tool for establishing the informal networks and friendships so essential to family life.
