About Z Recommends

Z Recommends has been cited by the Washington Post, USA Today, and the Sierra Club for its consumer research and reporting, and is best known by parents and bloggers for its thorough product reviewing as well as its consumer advocacy on issues central to parents' concerns for the health and safety of their children. Z Recommends has been in publication since September 2006, branched out to develop additional blogs in late 2007 and early 2008, and expanded into a six-blog network of original, high-quality content blogs for parents in September 2008.

Jennifer
Jennifer L. F. McNichols is an analog photographer who mourns the loss of Polaroid and prefers records to CDs but somehow got enmeshed in this digital blogging world. She is also a co-founder and editor of the ZRecs Network, and spends much of her free time photographing, researching for ZRecs, and playing with her supremely fabulous daughter, Z. If free time existed beyond those three things, Jennifer could be found teaching herself to sew, brewing beer and wine, traveling, and watching TV.

Jeremiah
