Family Kids & Youth is one of the best known young people and children’s research agencies with a reputation for pragmatic and insightful recommendations. We work for some of the leading names in the child, youth and family markets, as well as the education and health sector. We have carried out many global studies on children’s use of digital devices, multi media platforms, parenting, play, advertising and communication, diet and activities.

Clients gain the unique expertise and hands on involvement of Dr Barbie Clarke, an acknowledged global child and youth specialist. Barbie completed her PhD in child and adolescent psychosocial development at the University of Cambridge. She is supported by a team of researchers with post-graduate qualifications in psychology, ethnography, sociology, media studies and teaching.

At Family Kids & Youth we immerse ourselves into the lives of children, young people, family groups and individual family members to provide research, insight, expertise and creative ideas. Each team member working with children has DBS clearance. Our experience of the family market is extensive, and we work with clients to help develop their knowledge in innovative and creative ways.
