The Best of 5.30 With Jude - Cooking, Childcare, Gardening, Craft, Pet-Care, Health, Renovation by Jude Dobson (Author) You know all those health tidbits you've picked up over the years, but weren't quite sure how? Well chances are Jude Dobson had something to do with it, thanks to her near-nightly presence on our screens, delivering health info and solutions in Family Health Diary TV ads.

But her face has been a constant presence on television for over 25 years – with many still remembering her from Sale of the Century and 5.30 with Jude.

And in the past decade Jude's made herself known to a new generation of Kiwis as presenter and narrator of the Raising Children multi-platform parenting series – currently showing on TVNZ Heartland – a concept Jude created through her own production companies Homegrown Television and Raising Children Media.
