Kerstine Rencourt - Managing Director
Kerstine is the creative drive and inspiration behind Glo Family. As a Director in a global accountancy firm, Kerstine worked in Europe and travelled extensively, developing sophisticated and eclectic tastes along the way, with an expectation of high standards of service and attention to detail. Her experience of childbirth convinced her that the care and levels of service should and could be so much better. Now, with two small children, she believes that having babies doesn't mean you suddenly change your personality and sense of style.
