Project overview

We have worked with Johnson & Johnson since 2000 to create pregnancy and parenting products for the BabyCentre brand to support parents at every stage of their exciting and challenging new journey. From expert-reviewed medical advice and video tutorials to caring, supportive emails, interactive tools and apps, we walk every step with them.

The key to BabyCentre’s success is our customised, stage-based approach, delivering trusted information and support to mums that’s Remarkably Right® at every stage of her child’s development, from preconception to the age of five.

The information we produce is clear, accurate, balanced, evidence-based and up-to-date. We are proud to have been awarded the Information Standard accreditation, and sit alongside other organisations committed to quality health care and evidence-based information.

We manage BabyCentre UK’s social channels including Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter. We reach out to parents who want to engage with BabyCentre on the platforms that are an essential part of their daily life.

  • BabyCentre (managed by Thrive) is an excellent website. The scope of information is immense, however this does not detract from the quality of the overall resource.

  • The content Thrive produce for BabyCentre is well-written, accurate and the way it clarifies complex topics is highly effective. I highly recommend BabyCentre. It’s a great resource for parents and parents-to-be.

  • On behalf of everyone on the MAMA team and our partners across the globe, I say thank you for all that you’ve contributed to our work and the movement as a whole, and I deeply believe, as one of our stakeholders recently told us, that this small but mighty team truly did “make a dent in the universe.”
