KIDsize Living – The Essential Family Website for Sydney's Inner West
Here’s the second in the series about new location-specific websites which have popped up around Sydney. This one was started by two mums in the Inner West, take a look!
KIDsize Living
An online activity guide for kids in Sydney’s Inner Weest
www.kidsizeliving.com.au
Facebook page here. Twitter page here.
Inner West mums Kathrine D’Costa and Eileen Stapleton have five children between them and met at their oldest sons’ preschool.
With backgrounds in PR, marketing and events, they were in a great position to collect and disseminate exactly the sort of information families with young children need.
When did you start KIDsize Living?
We started KIDsize Living in July 2010 as we felt that Sydney’s Inner West had no central information pool of activities for kids and we live in the area.
I have two boys, Jarvis aged 6 and Jagger, 4. Kikki Bo is the family’s latest addition and she is now 6 months old.
Kathrine has Ivy who’s just turned 3 and Mason who’s 6.
We absolutely love exploring all the little nooks and crannies with our kids in tow and happily share our experiences and info for all local Inner West families to enjoy.
How can families interact with the site?
We encourage people to become members and that way they can enter our competitions and feel a part of our community by sending in their reviews, ideas and new hot spots etc.
We also have a very active Facebook page where people can interact freely with us and each other.
Local businesses and KIDsize Living members can also upload any local info they come across and we then share it with our community.

Where do you see the site going?
Watch this space! We have a bunch of new and exciting projects in the pipeline. Exciting times ahead!
Good luck Eileen and Kathrine, you’re doing a great job for the Inner wests mums and dads!
