💡 A claimed listing is not an endorsement or background check — it simply means the business manages its own information.

Advertising & Partnerships 📣

Reach South Florida parents while they’re actively planning weekends, birthdays, classes and camps. Paid exposure is always clearly labeled “Sponsored” and is never mixed into editorial recommendations.

Opportunities

  • Newsletter sponsorships — the Thursday weekend email families plan from.
  • Homepage placements — labeled sponsored spots in Featured Local Businesses.
  • Sponsored guides — clearly disclosed guides built with our editorial team.
  • Seasonal campaigns — summer camps, back-to-school, holidays and spring break.

Our rules

  • We never promise leads, rankings, bookings or specific reach numbers.
  • Sponsored content is labeled everywhere it appears.
  • Directory plans (Featured $39/mo, Spotlight $79/mo) are self-serve on the List Your Business page.

About SFL Kid Guide 🌴

SFL Kid Guide logo

SFL Kid Guide helps families discover South Florida. We collect the activities, events, birthday parties, camps, classes and local businesses that make raising kids between Homestead and Jupiter a little more fun — and a lot easier to plan.

What we do

  • Verify before we publish. Listings show who supplied the information and when it was last checked.
  • Organize by real life. Search by age, city, price, indoor/outdoor, sensory-friendly sessions and languages.
  • Label the money. Paid placements say “Sponsored.” Editorial picks are never for sale.
  • Protect kids’ privacy. Accounts are for adults; we collect nothing about children beyond an age range you choose to search by.

Where we cover

Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. We’re building Miami-Dade first — we’d rather publish fewer, fully checked listings than empty pages for every city.

Frequently Asked Questions ❓

Privacy Policy

📝 This is an editable template prepared for the site owner’s review. It is not professionally approved legal advice and should be reviewed before public launch.

Who this site is for

What we collect

  • Account details you provide (adult name, email, county and interest preferences).
  • Saved favorites and folders.
  • Newsletter subscriptions, including your consent and preferred county.
  • Inquiry details you choose to send to specific businesses you select.
  • Basic, privacy-respecting usage counts (searches, listing views, clicks) to improve the guide.

What we never collect

Children’s full names, birth dates, schools, photographs, or precise location histories. The Birthday Finder asks only for an age range.

Sharing

When you send an inquiry, your contact details go only to the businesses you selected — this is stated before you submit. We never sell personal information.

Unsubscribe from email in one click. Delete your account and saved data at any time from your account page.

Terms of Use

📝 This is an editable template prepared for the site owner’s review. It is not professionally approved legal advice and should be reviewed before public launch.

Using the guide

SFL Kid Guide is a directory and editorial publication. Business information is supplied by businesses and/or checked against their published information; a listing, claim or paid plan is not an endorsement, guarantee, or background check.

Bookings and purchases

Families book and pay providers directly. We do not process bookings for listed businesses and are not responsible for their services, pricing changes, or availability.

Business plans

Paid plans are month-to-month subscriptions billed through our payment provider. Plans may be cancelled or downgraded from the owner dashboard, effective at the end of the current billing period. We do not promise leads, rankings, bookings, or newsletter exposure.

Content

Businesses are responsible for the accuracy and licensing of content and images they submit. Report incorrect information from any listing page.

Advertising Disclosure

How to spot paid content

Paid placements on SFL Kid Guide are labeled wherever they appear — in search results, category pages, the homepage and newsletters.

What money can’t buy

  • Editorial recommendations, guide conclusions and “best of” picks are never sold.
  • Paid plans buy expanded profiles and labeled placement — not reviews, ratings or rankings.
  • We never promise advertisers leads, bookings, search rankings or AI visibility.

Sponsored guides

When a guide is created with a sponsor, that relationship is disclosed at the top of the article.

Accessibility

📝 Editable template for owner review.

We aim for readable contrast, full keyboard navigation, labeled form controls, visible focus states, meaningful image descriptions, and reduced-motion support throughout SFL Kid Guide.

Accessibility information in listings

Listings carry accessibility details — step-free entry, accessible restrooms, pool lifts, sensory-friendly sessions and more — as a searchable attribute across every category, so families can filter for what they need.

Tell us what we missed

If any page or listing is hard to use, contact us and we’ll fix it or find another way to get you the information.

Admin & Owner Dashboard 🛠️

Preview of the management console. In production this sits behind owner login with role-based permissions, an audit trail, and server-side ownership enforcement — nothing here is publicly editable.
