For local businesses

Book a spot in Thursday's email

Pick a placement and a Thursday, hold it with a card, and send us the facts. We check that it fits our readers, usually within a day, then write it ourselves so it reads like a tip from a neighbor. Your card is only charged once it's confirmed.

Not sure which placement? Tell us about your business and we'll suggest one.

The two greyed lines are other businesses, to show the block your line sits in. We rewrite the wording in our voice before it ships, so treat your text as the raw material rather than the final copy.

How the fit check works

We only feature things we'd take our own kids to. Every booking is checked against that bar before anything is charged: Philly-area, genuinely useful to parents of young kids, and honest about what it is. If it doesn't fit, the hold on your card is released and we tell you why.

Placements are labeled as partner spots in the email. The words are ours; the facts are yours.
