What advertisers are saying about Peninsula Kids!

Peninsula Kids is the go to reference guide for parents in the Mornington Peninsula, so it’s definitely a wise choice to advertise with them.

I’ve also found them friendly, helpful and professional. A pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend.”

Olivia de Sousa-Ferres from Jolly Joeys – October 2017

Peninsula Kids has been a great source of new business for us and I would recommend it to any business targeting this market. We hope to continue working with Peninsula Kids in the future with further success.”

Jason from WeNeedaNanny.com.au – October 2017 

Lucas Dental Care recently opened up a third Specialist Paediatric Dental practice in Mornington. To be able to advertise in a magazine that is directly related to children and their families in this area has been a successful venture.

Our Specialist Paediatric Dentists have been able to contribute to “ask the expert” as well as provide informative articles in the development and care of children’s teeth.

We look forward to our continued relationship with Peninsula Kids and hope that our information in this wonderful magazine will continue to provide mutual benefits.”

Megan Boyd, Lucas Dental Care, Practice Manager – September 2017

We have run a few campaigns with Peninsula Kids in which we believe each of them have been successful. The Peninsula Kids platforms are a great way to engage with Mornington Peninsula Mums in a cost-effective way. We saw a noticeable increase in sales specifically from the Mornington Peninsula market after advertising on Peninsula Kids. I would recommend collaborating with Peninsula Kids, particularly when Peninsula mums are your target market.”

Ashlee from Peninsula Hot Springs – June 2016

MPK has been instrumental in promoting my business across the whole Peninsula. Being Peninsula born and bred it was important for me to focus my show’s around my local region and MPK has been an amazing vehicle to help me do this. I couldn’t recommend the web services enough and it’s amazing value for money.”

Charlie (AKA Charlie SillyPants) from  Melbourne Madness – June 2016

As a family friendly venue, we rely on professional and effective advertising methods to promote our business within the local and surrounding communities and we have never been disappointed with Mornington Peninsula Kids. From the time of booking to the end result in various media platforms, it has proven to be a very successful and beneficial business relationship from the beginning, which we look forward to continuing into the future!”

Jacqui from Beretta’s Langwarrin Hotel – June 2016

I have used Mornington Peninsula Kids for advertising my business on line as well as print. The professionalism at all times has been at an extreme high standard. The one thing that consistently stands out is what they say and do is spot on. They go above and beyond what a lot of other advertising companies do, they return calls, they do one on one consults, they even help with graphic design in a prompt manner. This is one company I will not hesitate to use and refer onto other businesses to use.

Thanks Guys keep up the awesome customer service!”

Annie from Amazing Toys – June 2016

Peninsula Kids Magazine has been instrumental in the success of Horseback School Holiday Program. The product provided by Peninsula Kids Magazine covers all advertising avenues, such as print, social media and newsletters. They follow up and ensure your ad makes the run, with very clear advertising specifications.

We express great appreciation for the team at Peninsula Kids Magazine.”

The Summer Circus Energy – January 2026

Get ready — January at @soulcircusaerial  is where the energy explodes! The moment the doors swing open, the silks ripple, the trapeze starts to sway, and the whole club comes alive like it’s cheering, Let’s go!

Kids can jump into a full-day adventure, flying through aerial skills, flipping, climbing and balancing before recharging with a burst of arts and crafts in the middle of the day.

Or they can choose a morning or afternoon session packed with high-energy fun.
From the first warm-up laugh to the last swing on the trapeze, confidence grows fast. New skills click, friendships spark, and the whole place buzzes with achievement and excitement.

And when the holidays wrap up, the momentum doesn’t stop — our after-school aerial classes keep kids growing stronger, braver and more unstoppable all year round.

Ashleigh Paterson isn’t trying to be the perfect mum. She’s not plating up Instagram-worthy dinners every night or pretending her five-year-old eats kale chips for breakfast. What she is doing, through her wildly relatable Instagram account  @ashleigh.cooks, is showing thousands of parents that feeding a family doesn’t have to be a source of stress. From weeknight dinners to lunchbox bakes and freezer-friendly snacks, Ashleigh’s recipes focus on what families actually eat.
