Gina was born and grew up in the Scottish Borders. After studying Hotels and Catering in Edinburgh, she had an opportunity to become a maternity nurse and discovered her flair with babies. Over the course of her career, she has worked with hundreds of families with babies and small children.

For twelve years she was one of the most sought-after maternity nurses in the world, and specialised in caring for newborn babies and toddlers with serious sleeping and feeding problems. Gina worked for all kinds of people, from leading lawyers and high-flying bankers to newspaper editors, pop stars and other media personalities.

The techniques, methods and common-sense approach that she developed over the years were so successful and in such demand, that Gina decided to offer her theories, not just to those who were in a position to hire her, but to all families who felt that her methods and routines might help them. In 1999 she published THE CONTENTED LITTLE BABY BOOK. It was a runaway success, largely due to enthusiastic, word-of-mouth recommendation. Since publication, it has consistently been the best-selling parenting book in the UK, having sold over 500,000 copies to date.

In 1999, after the success of her first book, Gina gave up maternity nursing and launched a telephone consultancy service, the aim being to make her specialist knowledge and expertise accessible to a wider range of parents. Through her books, Gina continues to bring her ideas to an even greater audience. Five further titles have followed since 1999:

From Contented Baby To Confident Child (2000),
The Contented Little Baby Book Of Weaning (2002),
Potty Training In One Week (2003),
The Complete Sleep Guide for Contented Babies and Toddlers (2003), and
The Contented Child Food Bible (2004) with Paul Sacher.
A new book, ‘Top Tips for a Contented Baby’ will be published in 2005. As well as achieving best-selling status in the UK, Gina’s books have been published in the US, and translated into Spanish, Hebrew, Dutch and Chinese.

Gina travels extensively, but lives for much of the time in Scotland. When she has some rare free time, she enjoys swimming, gardening and cooking.
