Helping local businesses shine. Helping Cape Town families find them.

I’m Brittany, a Cape Town mom of three. I’m passionate about showcasing the wonderful businesses of Cape Town, and am equally passionate about helping families find the people, places and services they need.

I’m bringing those things together in Mom’s Directory—a resource for families. I research and build with care, to make everyday family life a little easier and give local businesses a place to be discovered.

Let’s get you listed

Why Mom’s Directory?

A real person behind every listing.

I research each listing myself and take care with the information I share. When you apply, you’re speaking to me, and I’ll help put your business into words.

From your application to your listing.
  • Local businesses deserve to be discovered.

    Cape Town is full of people putting their heart into what they do. I’m passionate about giving their businesses a place to shine and helping families discover what’s on their doorstep.

  • Families deserve a useful resource.

    Finding a café with a play area, a doctor or a swimming teacher can mean searching in several places. I bring the options and practical details together to make that search a little easier.

  • Give your business a little more spotlight.

    You put your heart into what you do. Featured and Spotlight help you share it with more Cape Town families through prominent placement and promotion, with a personal helping hand from me.

  • Trust matters on both sides.

    Paid placements are clearly labelled, and Mom-Vouched is independent of payment. Families can understand what they’re seeing, and businesses know what they’re paying for.

Support that continues after you’re listed.

When your hours, contact details or offering change, I’ll update your listing for free. Paid listings also receive quarterly views and clicks, so you can see how people are finding and interacting with your business.

Kid-friendly Cafés & Coffee Shops

Eversdal Road, Bellville
Cost
No separate play fee, check menu before going
Ages
All ages · playground suits younger children

This garden-centre café has a large outdoor play area, mini farm-animal sanctuary and reptile park, with extra activities such as sand art and pottery painting. It is mostly an outdoor outing, so it works best in dry weather.

✓ Mom-Vouched

Trust is earned. It can’t be bought. Paid listings buy visibility and promotion. The Mom-Vouched badge is independent of payment and isn’t included in any paid package.

💛 Fellow mom biz

Celebrating mom-owned businesses. The Fellow mom biz badge identifies a mom-owned business and is available free with any listing, independently of paid placement. It doesn’t buy priority placement or a Mom-Vouched endorsement. All businesses relevant to Cape Town families are welcome to apply, whether mom-owned or not.

A personal helping hand

From your application to your listing.

Tell me about your business, and I’ll help bring your listing together.

  1. Apply

    Share what you offer, where you are and how families can contact you. Choose the listing option that suits your business. There’s no payment when you submit the form.

  2. Personal review

    I’ll review your business and check availability for any paid placement. For Featured and Spotlight applications, I’ll email you within two working days.

  3. Prepare your listing

    I’ll put your listing together using the information you share. For an approved paid listing, I’ll send an invoice for your chosen package and term, payable by EFT. Free listings need no payment.

  4. Go live

    Paid listings go live within 72 hours of payment reflecting, and your term starts on the day your listing goes live. Free listings are published after review and preparation. Once you’re listed, updates are free.

Tell me about your business

No debit orders. Nothing renews automatically.

Find your place

Is there room in your section?

Featured is capped at four per section. Spotlight is capped at two. Choose your section to see space based on the listings currently published.

Free listings are always open for applications.

Final availability is confirmed with Brittany. Pending applications aren’t reflected here.

Good questions. Straight answers.

Can I update my listing?

Any time, for free. New photos, hours or a phone number: email themomsdirectory@gmail.com and I'll sort it out. Or directly via the listing card.

How do you count my views and clicks?

I measure how many people view your listing and how many tap through to your website, phone, WhatsApp or directions. They're totals, not information about individual moms, and I only share them with you.

Can I start free?

Yes. Start free, upgrade anytime. Your Listed page includes your business details, contact links, hours and directions. You can choose a paid option when you’re ready for more visibility.

Is there a contract?

Paid listings run for the three-month or annual term you choose. Nothing auto-renews. You pay by EFT against an invoice, with no debit orders. Before your term ends, I’ll send you a renewal quote; carrying on is your choice.

What if I don’t renew?

Your listing stays published as a free Listed listing, so families can still find you. It loses its priority placement and moves back among the free listings in your section, and the gallery and quarterly numbers fall away. Anything already posted, like a story or collab post, stays up.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. To upgrade during a paid term, pay the difference between the tiers and keep the same renewal date. Email me and I’ll help you choose.

The practical details

Payments, renewals & updates

Payments are made via EFT against an invoice. No debit orders, nothing that comes off your account automatically.

When your term starts. Your listing goes live within 72 hours of your payment reflecting, and your term runs from the day it goes live. By paying, you're asking me to publish it within that period.

Nothing renews automatically. A few weeks before your term ends I'll email you what your listing actually did — how many moms viewed it, and how many clicked through to you — together with a renewal quote. If you'd like to carry on, pay it and I'll extend your listing. If you'd rather not, just tell me and your listing drops back to the free Listed tier. The photo gallery, the priority placement and the quarterly numbers fall away. Anything already published — an Instagram story, a collaboration post, a newsletter feature — stays up. I don't take those down.

Nobody is removed for not paying. If you don't renew, your listing stays published as a free Listed listing, so families can still find you. It just loses its priority placement and sits with the other free listings in your section. The directory has to be complete for moms to trust it, and a mom looking for a swim school shouldn't find a gap where one used to be.

Upgrading mid-term. Pay the difference between the two tiers and your renewal date stays the same.

Updates are free. New photos, changed hours, a new phone number, a new website — email themomsdirectory@gmail.com any time and I'll sort it out at no extra charge.

Your numbers. I measure how many people view your listing, and how many click through to your website, phone, WhatsApp or directions. These are aggregate counts, not information about individual visitors, and I don't share them with anyone but you.

Paid features are labelled as paid. Where your listing includes an Instagram story or a newsletter feature, that post will carry a paid-partnership or sponsored label. That's an advertising rule, and it's also the only way the recommendations on this directory stay worth anything.

Declining and removing listings. I reserve the right to decline or remove any listing — free or paid — that I believe is misleading, unsafe, or inconsistent with the spirit of the directory. That includes listings that attract consistent concern from the community. If something comes through, I'll look into it properly and speak to you before doing anything.

Things may change. This is a young directory and it's still growing, so the details on this page — categories, listing options, features and pricing — may change over time. Anything you've already paid for stays as agreed, and an increase never applies to a term you've already paid for.

If you joined at the founding price

If you joined at the founding price. The R150 was once-off and it stays once-off — there's nothing to renew, and nothing will ever come off your account. Your listing keeps its placement, its photo gallery and its spot on the homepage. The quarterly numbers are new since you joined, and I'll send you those too. If you ever want to move up to Spotlight, tell me and I'll sort out the difference.

Refunds & cancellation

Refunds. Once your listing is live the fee is not refundable, and the seven-day cancellation right under section 44 of the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act no longer applies, because you asked me to publish it straight away. If I decline a listing after payment but before it goes live, the fee is refunded in full. If I remove a paid listing for the reasons set out under Declining and removing listings below, I'll refund the unused part of your term.
