Approval Process
Your application will be reviewed by the YoungLives consortium. This step helps ensure all facilities meet our standards for quality and safeguarding. This typically takes 2-3 working days.
Why we have an approval process:
Due to safeguarding requirements in the UK and our commitment to responsible advertising, all providers must go through an approval process. This helps keep children and families safe when exploring activities in the Wakefield area.
Create Activities
Once approved, you can log in to your dashboard and begin adding your activities. You can include details such as age ranges, descriptions, times, pricing, and locations.
Activity Details You Can Include:
- Activity name
- Description
- Age ranges
- Location
- Days & times
- Price information
- Contact details
- Special requirements
Upload Images
Add photos of your activities to make your listings more appealing. High-quality images help parents and guardians see what their children will experience.
Image tip: Photos showing children actually participating in activities (with appropriate permissions) tend to attract more interest than empty spaces.
Activity Approval & Publication
Your activities will be reviewed and, once approved, will appear in our directory. Families across the Wakefield area will then be able to discover your offerings.
