You spent years building your classes. You deserve a business that works even when you're at the park with your kids. 💛

I know what it feels like to be brilliant at the thing you do the classes, the energy, the impact you have on those little ones and still feel like the business side is always one more thing on an already-too-long list.

Email marketing isn't another job. It's the thing that makes everything else easier.

It's the system that keeps parents warm between terms without you having to show up every day. It's the autumn booking rush that starts in July because you stayed front of mind. It's the guilt-free summer because your business is ticking over without you.

I built mine around school hours, nap times, and the occasional five minutes of peace in the car. With 20+ years of corporate, behind me and the messy play mum experience, I know how to build systems that work in real life.

Not perfect life. Real life.

Starting a business can be scary, so many decisions to make and have you made the right one!

Well let me tell you there are no wrong decisions, every decision you make, you will learn something new and as a parent you’re teaching kids to be brave and confident.

Why I recommend Systeme.io to most children's activity provider I work with 👇

I'm not precious about tools. I'll recommend whatever works best for the person in front of me. But Systeme.io keeps winning for independent children's activity providers and here's why:

✅ Genuinely free plan - with up to 2,000 contacts and unlimited emails. Most independent providers won't outgrow this for years.

✅ All-in-one - email marketing, funnels, landing pages. No juggling 4 different subscriptions.

✅ Handles the home address issue - you don't need to put your house on the internet to be GDPR compliant (more on this in a post later this week 👀)

✅ Simple enough to set up in an afternoon - I've seen providers go from zero to their first email sent in a day with my guide.

I have an affiliate link for Systeme.io - it costs you nothing extra and supports what I do here. But honestly? I'd recommend it even if I didn't.

What do you actually write in a weekly email? Here are 5 ideas for children's activity providers 👇

1️⃣ A helpful tip for parents
Something relevant to the age group you work with. 'Signs your toddler is ready for group classes.' 'How music supports language development.' You already KNOW this stuff.

2️⃣ A behind-the-scenes update
What are you working on? What's coming next term? Parents love feeling like insiders.

3️⃣ A class spotlight or success story
'Last week in our session, something magical happened...' — storytelling builds connection and loyalty.

4️⃣ Upcoming dates and availability
'We have 3 spaces left for September here's how to grab one.' Direct. Simple. Effective.

5️⃣ A personal note from you
Just a line or two. How your week went. Something funny the kids did. YOU. Not a brand a person.

That's it. That's an email. It doesn't need to be a newsletter. It doesn't need a fancy header. It just needs to feel like a message from someone who cares.

Something exciting is coming. And I've been building it in the pockets of time. ☕✨

For 18 months I've been showing up here talking about simplifying tech for children's activity providers. About building an online presence that works for YOUR life. About systems that run in the background while you're doing the school run.

And I've been quietly building something that brings all of it together in a whole new way.

I'm not ready to share everything yet. But I will say this, it's for children's activity providers who are done with overwhelm. Who want to build a business that works around family life. Who are ready to stop posting into the void and start doing things that actually move the needle.

Watch this space. 👀

In the meantime if you want to make sure you're first to know when it drops, the best place to be is my email list.

Hot take: posting on social media during the summer holidays is mostly performative for children's activity providers. 🌶️

Hear me out.

Parents are at the beach. At the park. On holiday. They are not scrolling for baby sensory class content in August.

Providers are exhausted, posting out of guilt more than strategy, watching their reach tank because the algorithm punishes the inconsistency that comes with, you know, HAVING A LIFE.

Meanwhile the parents who are on your email list? They check their emails every day. Lying on a sun lounger. Waiting for a coffee. In the car while the kids sleep.

ONE weekly email to a warm list of 50 people gets your September classes in front of more warm prospects than a month of social posts to a cold algorithm.

This is the summer to do it differently.

Why wait for perfection when you can show up like a hot mess express and still get things done?

Last year, I stumbled upon the quote "Messy action is better than no action," and it hit me harder than a toddler with a sugar high.

Let's be real while we're all busy perfecting our procrastination skills, life is passing us by like a hyper-speed treadmill.

Instead of waiting for that magical unicorn of perfection, why not just show up with your hair in a bun, mismatched socks, and a can-do attitude?

So go ahead, write that email, take the plunge, and remember: even a messy leap is better than a perfect sit-down.

You'll thank yourself later, probably while enjoying a victory snack in your pajamas!

Honest confession: I started my business to pay for the snacks during the school holidays 😂

Before all this, before Kelly Reynolds Socials, before helping children's activity providers with their tech. I ran messy play classes under a franchise. I was also a mum trying to make the maths work during six weeks of 'Mum I'm hungry' every 45 minutes.

And before THAT? 20+ years in corporate. Project management. Tech systems. Managing teams. The kind of career that looks impressive on paper but doesn't leave much room for the school run.

I bring all of that with me into everything I do now.

The project management brain that builds systems that actually work. The tech confidence that makes the scary stuff feel simple. And the messy play mum energy that knows EXACTLY what your life looks like.

Email marketing is the tool that lets your business work even when you're at the park, at soft play, or hiding in the bathroom for five minutes of peace.

It works in the pockets of time. Just like we do. 💛

Staring at a blank screen every week wondering what to put in your emails? 👀

You’re not alone.

One of the biggest reasons activity providers struggle with email marketing isn’t the tech, it’s simply not knowing what to say.

The good news? You don’t need to reinvent the wheel every week.

Create a simple structure for your emails:
✨ What’s been happening in your classes
✨ A little behind-the-scenes insight
✨ A tip or activity parents can try at home

When your emails follow a consistent format, writing them becomes easier and parents know exactly what to expect. Over time, they’ll start looking forward to hearing from you.

This is something we covered in depth inside my membership this week, where I shared templates, AI prompts, subject line ideas and more to help members make email marketing quicker and easier.

Your booking system holds your clients. Your email list keeps them. 💛

Think about the journey a parent takes with you. They find you on social media (or Google). They book through your booking system. They come to classes. They love it.

Then summer hits. Classes pause. And... silence.

No touchpoint. No reason to stay front of mind. No gentle reminder that you exist and September is coming.

This is the gap that email marketing fills. It's the bridge between one term and the next. Between a casual customer and a loyal one.

The good news? Connecting your world, booking system, email list, social media doesn't have to be complicated.

Platforms like Systeme.io make this genuinely simple, with a generous free plan that most independent providers will never outgrow.

I've spent 18 months helping children's activity providers with exactly this. And I built a free guide to get you started.
