Helen Ellis M.A. is a New Zealand researcher, writer, anthropologist, and veteran of Distance Grandparenting. Three of her four children and six of her seven grandchildren live 16 to 30 flight hours away in America, England and Scotland. In her research, she asks the question: “How is distance familying for you?” As a Distance Grandparent of more than 20 years and a Distance Parent for over 30 years she has well and truly got the T-shirt. Her first book, 'Being a Distance Grandparent' combines that experience with her extensive global research. This edition is available in paperback, kindle, AND audio (narration by Helen - look for the sample). Her second book, 'Being a Distance Son or Daughter' tells the 'how it is' for the middle generation who have left home. This edition is available in paperback and kindle. Helen feels passionate that Distance Families deserve a voice and has doggedly taken on that role. Her goal is to support each generation to understand how it is for the other. “With understanding comes empathy and this can only do good as we all gingerly navigate the oftentimes challenging social phenomenon of distance families,” she explains. The final book in the series, 'Being a Distance Grandchild - a Book for ALL Generations' will be published early 2026. 'Follow' Helen to be kept informed.
