Hi everyone. We offer so many different types of product reviewing and testing on MadeForMums, we thought it would be good to set out all the various ways you can take part.

Product Tests
These are recruited for on the forum in our Product Tests topic here.
We run product tests, for different parenting brands, on anything from buggies to stretch mark cream to baby food.
If you are chosen to be a product tester, you will be sent the product to test out and asked to provide your feedback and some pictures on a forum thread.

How do I take part in Product Tests?
1. You need to be signed up to MadeForMums: register here.
2. Look out for new product test recruitment threads: these will always be posted here.
3. Look out for news of new product tests in our weekly newsletter: you can sign up for that here.

Judging for Awards
Every year, MadeForMums runs both the MadeForMums Awards for all parenting products (except toys) and the MadeForMums Toy Awards (just for toys). For the MadeForMums Awards, we recruit parent judges, and for the MadeForMums Toy Awards, we recruit child (and baby) judges.
We recruit for the MadeForMums parents judges in November or December and for the MadeForMums Toy Awards child judges in June or July.

How do I get to be an Awards Judge?
1. You need to be signed up to MadeForMums: register here.
2. Make sure you’ve chosen to receive our weekly newsletter: we always put Awards Judges recruitment news in our newsletter, you can sign up for that here.
3. Keep an eye on the forum: when recruitment starts, we often start a new thread in our Site Questions & Suggestions topic here with all the key details of how to apply.

Home Testing
We also run a home testing programme for parenting products and toys.
We select people to become Home Testers from all those who have left at least 1 short (100 to 150 words) review on any of our existing product review articles. This includes reviews for products such as pushchairscar seats or nappies.

How do I get to be a Home Tester?
1. You need to be signed up to MadeForMums: register here.
2. You need to leave at least 1 short (100 to 150 words) review on any of our existing product review articles. Check out our Reviews on MadeForMums and use the search tool to find specific products. The more useful reviews you post, the more likely you are to be selected as one of our Home Testers.
3. Read our full guide to becoming a Home Tester here
4. The best reviewers each month will be contacted by MadeForMums via email and invited to join the Home Testers team.

We hope this helps, but if you have any questions, please do post them here and we'll do our best to answer them!
