Minimosas

Minimosas is a Squarespace 7.1 template by Square Design, sold through the SquareKicker template store, built for child-centred businesses: nurseries, daycares, preschools and after-school clubs. The demo is a nursery in London: a haven-of-joy hero, an about-us section, three values (collaboration, evolution, creativity), parent testimonials and a register-today prompt, with an Information page covering ages, opening hours, a daily schedule, activities and upcoming events, an About Us page with the story, team and values, an FAQ page with accordions, a Register page with an enrolment form, a privacy policy and a 404. The old listing described product catalogues for children's boutiques and family blogs; the demo is a nursery site with no shop and no blog.

What you get

Who it suits

Nurseries, daycares, preschools, childminders, holiday clubs and children's activity providers that need to explain what a day looks like and take enrolment enquiries. With new imagery it also works for a tutoring centre or a children's dance or music school.

Honest limits

The Register page is a Squarespace form, not an enrolment system: it emails you the details and there is no payment, waiting list or parent login. Upcoming events are typed in, not a calendar. There is no blog and no shop, so a boutique or a family blogger should look elsewhere. The playful cursor and horizontal scrolling effects are SquareKicker features that stay in place after the 30-day trial but need a subscription to keep editing, and the horizontal scroll is worth testing on mobile before you commit.

How it is delivered

SquareKicker templates install through the SquareKicker Template Engine onto a new or existing Squarespace 7.1 site: connect the free SquareKicker extension, pick the template and it installs in a few clicks, with the choice of keeping your existing site styles or replacing them with the template's. There is no duplicate site to copy from.
