Charlotte families have reached for the Kids' Directory since 2008. After COVID, I'm the only family print monthly publication in the Charlotte market that came back.
Every month, 17,000 copies are hand-delivered to 1,200+ places families go - pediatricians, schools, child care, libraries and more. See the distribution map.

Families can't choose you until they know you're there. Advertising is how new customers find you and how your business keeps growing.
Families flip fast, so your ad has to be bright and easy to read. I design your ad to stand out - a cute photo and a clear logo are what people remember.
Families move in, kids grow up and new babies arrive every month. When you stop advertising, you miss the families who are new to you.
Everyone is buried in emails, messages and ads. Keep your name in front of families, or they will forget you.
Showing up month after month builds trust. That is what brings repeat business and referrals.
With so much competition, even happy customers wander. Seeing your name again reminds them of the good experience they had - so when a friend asks "do you know a good...?", they think of you.

"I had to figure out where I was going to advertise my business when I first started. Then someone recommended the Kids' Directory. I looked at the magazine and didn't think twice. My first ad in the KD brought me a huge field trip and it has been consistent since then. They have been so wonderful to work with; thank you KD!"
