Brisbane Kids- the official guide to child friendly brisbane

  • AboutBrisbane Kids Creative was created by me! Ngaire Stirling. I wont pretend to talk in the third person about myself, instead let me tell you a bit about me and how 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came about. At the time the domain name 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for purchase I was a stay at home mum in the middle of a degree centred around journalism and PR. a couple of years earlier I had been contemplating returning to my previous career in marketing management and for a while I even tried. 3 months into a new role and it was clear that I had no passion for my old life and to make the decision to quit easier, my almost 2 year old at the time was not coping with childcare. So, as a family we made the decision for me to return to becoming a stay at home mum. About 1 years later or so.. 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for sale. My friends had often commented on my ability to know exactly what was happening in Brisbane for kids. I had my son enrolled in some awesome activities and we often visited some great destinations. I loved finding fun things for us to doโ€ฆ

Meaghan Brightwell

Meaghan is an AFOL (adult fan of LEGO), intrepid traveller, and has a real knack for hunting down new and exciting playgrounds. In her past life Meaghan worked closely with families as a nurse and vacation care co-ordinator but can now be found awkwardly scaling play equipment with her two kids, enjoying a leisurely walk or reading a book.
