A great place! We’ve been bringing our daughter here full time since she was 3 months old and it has been exactly what we’ve wanted and needed for childcare as two remote-working professionals and as someone who was exclusively breastfeeding. The playmakers are so great with the kids, my daughter lights up when she sees them every morning. The space is clean and inviting; it truly feels like a second home to us! A great little community of parents as well!

WHAT A GEM! Seriously---Itsy Bitsy is exactly what community life and care should look like. Coworking here while my kiddo is in the next room having a great time is a win-win. The staff are really great with the kids, and the vibe in the coworking space is a perfect blend of productive, laid back, and friendly. 10/10 recommend!

We had our son's first birthday party here and we couldn't be more grateful for the experience itself there and for the support of the director and those working there. It was a great balance of the playroom, the cafe option, and even an area where we had a small music performance by our son's music teacher. Everyone was very accommodating and helpful. So many people complimented us on the choice of space afterwards. We loved it there!

This place has been wonderful for me and my 7-month old. I was relying on in-home care, which wasn’t great for getting into a work zone. This place is exactly what I needed. And my baby gets to hang out with new friends! Love love love

Itsy bitsy has given us the flexibility we need as work from home parents. We love it and our son too. They deserve all the stars.

Itsy Bitsy is a Godsend for our family. We were just finishing up a nanny share and tried a day care for 3 months and it just wasn’t a good fit for our 2 yr old. Itsy Bitsy is a great alternative for working parents who have flexibility to work from home. We are there three mornings a week on the 48hr/mo plan. The play makers there who care for the kids are awesome and very kind and patient. The ability to let your child play freely and do self-directed play was a huge benefit to our son. I get a lot more work done in the co-working space since it’s easier to focus there than at home with chores and other distractions staring you in the face. Plus you get bottomless coffee and snacks. I can also peek through the windows from the cafe area to see how my son is doing and watch him play for a minute. My son never wants to leave when it’s time to go which I take as a very good sign. The affordability of this childcare option is amazing and was about half the cost of what we were paying for a daycare with worse teacher to child ratios. Here they keep the ratio 4:1 so I know my kid will always get the attention they need. Can’t recommend it enough!

Just attended our grandson's first bday party here---and it was WONDERFUL!!! Fantastic play areas for kiddos--adorable party room--and excellent coffee for the adults. Will take my grandkids during the week for some terrific playtimes. Highly recommend it!! (Parents can "work" in the Internet "cafe" area while kiddos play, too.) Very clean, pristine environment. Check it out!!

$269 per month for their cheapest membership. When I tried to cancel, they ignored the request and still charged me anyway. When I contacted them about a refund, I was ignored. It's not worth it!

I drove by Itsy Bitsy a couple weeks before they opened, and I'm glad I saw them. I followed them on Instagram immediately because what they offer is REALLY useful--an indoor play space and co-working space. But they go beyond just the standard indoor playground; they offer care (play care, in their terminology) so your children are well cared for whilst you bring home the bacon. Their "playmakers" (it's whimsical; I love it) engage in fun and meaningful play and I love the idea that I could be nearby when my daughter is here but actually get work done. Because I was following their social media, I saw that Little Giggles Speech Therapy was holding a class called First Signs here, which is what has brought me to Itsy Bitsy for now. Itsy Bitsy's facilities are really nice and very clean. When you enter, you walk into the cafe area. There's a limited menu but for coffee drinkers you'll probably find something here! There are a few tables as well. To the right of the door is the co-working space with several desks ready for you to roll up your sleeves and get to work. On the left side of the building is the children's play space, and I think it's a smart way to design the place--it helps keep the distraction down. I'm not sure what the youngest age limit is for play care here. I met a woman who's purchased a membership here and her son is about seven months old; mine is only about four so she may be too little for the place, still. But I'm going to ask when I'm back next week for the signing class, because this is a great concept and I think it would be incredibly useful to be able to come here on my remote workdays and the rates are very reasonable. This business also offers open play times and you can rent for events, so it will be a place for me to keep in mind for birthday parties--though parking seems to be street only, and though at least some of the side streets around here don't appear to require a permit the parking is still limited. I'm just loving the concept of this business and really hope to use it more fully soon, and to see the community that builds here.

My 10 month old son loves to come here. I also love to come! I get so much done and he gets to play with others. Win win.

David has bizarre marketing techniques for his business. I would not recommend Itsy Bitsy, especially as you are putting David and his team in the duty of care of children.

I would give Itsy Bitsy six stars if I coud. The service, space (coworking and play) and cafe are top notch. It's such a relief to have a place I can take my daughter to play and learn when I need to get some work done in a quiet space. This is such a great resource in the city.

“7843hfjkkmd a4jdkasddj aioi43nyqkk[s ahelxa6tg2gasd83bccc2309cmiuaew” - Mickey, 23 monthsTranslation: "I love playing with my Ms Brit, Ms Jo, and Mr David. I’m having fun, learning rules, and staying safe. I cried the first few times I was here because this was new to me, but eventually I learned that this is a fun place to be. My mommy is so happy to have quiet time to get work and she checks on me throughout the day when she gets her coffee refills."I’m a new mom that has been working from home since my child was 6 months. It was ideal at first, but now that he’s almost 2, it’s getting harder to get work done. I wasn’t ready to send my son to daycare. I just wished there was a safe place where my son could play while that also offered a quiet room for me to work. I found my answer in Itsy Bitsy. I have peace of mind knowing that my son and I are in the same building and I can check on him whenever I want. While I am working in the room next door, he is having fun and learning in a safe environment with friendly and experienced care takers. The parent working space is comfortable—with modern furniture, real plants, a peaceful decor, and just a few feet from my son— and allows me to focus and work more effectively. The play area is spacious with fun toys for the little ones, but doesn’t feel cluttered or overwhelming. I love all the natural light in both rooms and most of all, the service. The staff is friendly and caring, not just to the little ones, but to me as well. As a single mom, it feels great to have someone come in and offer me more coffee and ask if there’s anything I need, or give me updates on my child. I highly recommend this for a parent that’s not ready to send their child to daycare or that just needs some quiet time to work and focus.

This place is a great addition to the neighborhood! Love the concept of a play area, co-working space and a cafe. Big, clean play area for kids of all ages and even a small fenced off area for infants. My toddler had a blast here. My husband and I also enjoyed our coffees.

This is an amazing little indoor play option for little ones. I came for open play with my 1yo and was originally concerned it may not be too toddler friendly, but that are. They have a little enclosed area for little little ones, but my son found his people in the general play area. He had a great time, had lots of things to play with and climb and a fair share of people watchingWould definitely consider coming back for playcare when I need to work a couple of hours and don't want to commit to a sitter
