NOTE: Stuff4Tots reserves full editorial control and may edit or tweak submissions as we see fit. These tweaks include anything from removing too much self-promotion, to optimizing for SEO, minor edits, and more. We cannot guarantee publishing any post submitted if it does not, in our judgement, meet the needs of our audience. If in doubt, please reach out to us before writing the article.
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. And 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.
Submitting your work acknowledges that you have read and agree to these notes and conditions.
