NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HGTV announced today that top blogger Rebecca Woolf is joining the HGTV.com family to bring her fresh and widely admired sense of style to a variety of innovative digital projects in the year ahead. Woolf, who gained a large and loyal fan following on her personal blog, Girls Gone Child, where she regularly showcases her own family’s laid-back, yet high-style approach to living with kids, will bring her unique design sensibilities to her first project — “HGTV ChildStyle with Rebecca Woolf” — where she will curate and share some of the most creative nurseries and kids’ rooms around.
“We are ecstatic to have Rebecca join the HGTV.com family,” said Vikki Neil, senior vice president and general manager, digital, Scripps Networks Interactive. “In addition to being one of the world’s top parenting bloggers, she’s also a talented writer, designer and photographer. We know our audience will connect not only with her honest, modern take on parenting, but also with her obvious passion for all things design driven.”
In addition to hosting HGTV’s new ChildStyle series online, Woolf also will bring her fresh and approachable design sense to an exciting collection of other multimedia initiatives at HGTV.com throughout 2012, while at the same time continuing to connect with her audience at Girls Gone Child.
“I am thrilled to be working with Scripps Networks Interactive and I am enthusiastically looking forward to connecting with other parents who are HGTV fans, as I have been for years,” said Woolf. “I’m especially excited to have the opportunity to host the new ChildStyle series at HGTV.com, where I will be able to share some truly inspired spaces for babies and children.”
