About Me

Welcome to the 1st Time Mums blog. My name is Jo Linsdell or "Mama" as Matteo (4 years) and Lorenzo (1 year) call me. I'm originally from the UK and married to Maurizio (an Italian). We live in Rome, Italy.

When my lovely sons let me, I'm an award winning freelance writer and best selling author. I've published two best selling rhyming children's picture story books; 'Out and about at the zoo' and 'Fairy May'.
