The Stuff4Tots Editorial Team
Stuff4Tots is proudly written by moms, dads and medical and parenting experts from all over the world. Read a little bit about our team below.
Michael Oliver – Founder and CEO
Father of two lovely and special children. I’m an engineer (electrical) by trade and have worked at many a blue chip organization in the past. From Ford Motor Company to Airbus to Wyeth Pharmaceuticals to the UK National Health Service I’ve had a pretty diverse working life. After completing my MBA I wanted to break away from the corporate ‘cubicle’ so I founded Stuff4Tots as a means of being at home for my family and creating a future for us all.
Now as CEO of Stuff4Tots I bring together my expertise as a parent, a husband and a professional to serve fellow parents providing useful and relevant information and products to new families.

Our Medical Review Process
As you can see from the team of experts and parents we have aboard at Stuff4Tots we only recruit top-quality, authoritative writers to join our editorial team.
However, where an article may cover medical topics we like to be doubly-sure we have got it right.
That’s why you’ll see ‘Medically Reviewed’ badges on some of our articles. We’ve had one of our medical team review the content of that article and provide feedback, suggestions and comments.
Each article is reviewed against current medical guidelines to make sure it is up-to-date and medically accurate.
You can scroll down to the bottom of any of our medically reviewed articles to find out who was the author and who was the reviewer.
