About the journal

Accessibility.

Our approach to making Modern Parenthood usable across devices and abilities.

Modern Parenthood is designed to be readable on a wide range of devices, including phones, tablets and larger screens. We want parents and carers to be able to find useful information without a complicated interface.

Our approach

The site uses semantic headings, keyboard-accessible navigation, visible focus states, descriptive page titles, readable text sizes and local illustrations with alternative text. We support reduced-motion preferences and design mobile layouts without requiring horizontal scrolling at common screen sizes.

Tools and alternatives

Our live search and outing checklist use JavaScript. The full story archive and all article links remain available without scripts. The checklist can still be read and printed without saving its checkmarks. The contact method is an email link rather than a web form, so visitors can use their preferred email service.

Known limits

Accessibility can vary by device, browser, assistive technology and individual needs. Third-party websites linked as references are outside our control. We haven't claimed formal independent accessibility certification. If something is difficult to use or needs an alternative format, we welcome feedback.
