1 child $14.00 per hour
2 children $12.50 per hour, per child

We prefer that children are currently potty learning so our team does not need to manage diapering.
Please note: This is a temporary childcare service. We are NOT a licensed childcare facility. While a team member is on-site, children will be largely self-directed and play independently.
If a child is behaving inappropriately or if a child with additional needs requires extra support, parents will be contacted for early pick-up. Parents are responsible for determining whether their child is comfortable and confident in an indoor playground environment.
We aim to support all children and parents as needs and situations arise.
Included with the hourly rate:

  • Daily playcenter pass ($10 value), playcenter pass can be used for additional hours if parent attends the facility at pick-up, same day only.
  • Snack/Drink voucher of $2 per hour, per child at time and date of stay only (snacks to be selected at time of arrival).
  • Total hours per day, per child
– Ages 2 -3 years is 2 hours max. No exceptions. Older siblings in attendance are required.
– Ages 4 -10 is 4 hours max. No exceptions.
– This means the minimum number of hours is 1 to maximum of 4 hours per day based on ages listed above
  • Please bring a change of clothes and necessary pull-up diapers.

  • Sensory play at sand table
  • Sport simulator
  • Imaginative play (play houses)

Owners

Hello Central Alberta,
Tammy and Marvin are residents of Sylvan Lake. We believe in community and wanted to offer the children of Central Alberta a place to have fun by incorporating interactive games with the traditional elements that indoor playgrounds offer. The layout of our center has been designed to allow parents to play with their child or relax in our café and have direct line-of-sight to their child.

We are a fabulous blended family of nine children and have successfully parented children of various ages. We are also proud grandparents of seven. The experiences we have with all of our own children and grandchildren, we know how important it is to have ‘parent time’ with a coffee or alone time to relax, while feeling comfortable your children are safe and having fun.

Our hope is that your family has as much fun here as we have had creating this playground for you and your family.
