What parents highlight
“In addition, several things in the play space looked very worn out, some broken, and not as clean as they could be.”
“There is also a protected baby area with books, puzzles, tunnels and more for very littles and this would be a perfect hideaway for you and your new baby to get out of the house.”
“From the moment we walked through the door we felt so welcomed and the stress of party hosting was gone!”
“The coffee and snacks are good and you can definitely look over emails without having to worry about the kids safety.”
“It is a nice place to be, and even get work done (Wi-Fi).”
What parents say
I am writing to HIGHLY recommend this indoor play and education center for both drop in play and drop in classes, as well as for membership. I signed my two kids up for a full membership from July - September (3 months) to help get us through the hottest months and I am so glad I did! My kids are three and six.
I have been visiting Just Kidding since they opened, and really love it there. The owner, Gabby, is so kind and genuinely wants to create command support parents. The play space is open enough for kids to run around, and also has plenty of activities and play features.
We visited recently and overall had a nice time. The space is cute and my kids had a lot of fun exploring and playing. One challenge for me as a parent was that the play area isn’t enclosed with a small gate or pony door.
This place has saved my sanity! The owner, Gabrielle, is so nice and cares about parents and the kids (she always greets me and my daughter by name when we come in). The staff I am getting to know on the play floor, Desiree and Alex, are amazing and remember my daughter and her personality each time I come also!
