Safety and cleanliness

How do you keep the centre clean?

arrow
Yes and we even have our White Sock Test to prove it! We employ cleaners who clean the centre every day, including a rigorous cleaning regime for the play structures. You will also see our general staff cleaning tables, sweeping and mopping in general areas. We have a large scrubber-dryer machine that cleans and disinfects the floors on a regular basis. We also use a process called fogging, which is used in a lot of hospitals to disinfect large open areas. The fogging equipment emits a fine mist of chemicals that disinfect every area they come into contact with, getting into every nook and cranny. The chemicals change structure when drying to become water and evaporating into oxygen so although they are very effective at disinfecting bugs, when dry they are completely harmless. This makes them 100% eco-friendly and child safe.

How do I know that the centre is safe?

arrow
We have a child protection policy in place that ensures certain controls such as maglock-controlled or alarmed entry/exit points are in operation or that adults may not enter the premises without a child. Please do not be offended if you arrive on your own to meet family who are already in the centre and we ask you to get them to come out and meet you. Our structure design complies with BS EN 1176 and is independently inspected every six months to make sure it is structurally sound and compliant with this standard. Our staff also carry out daily checks on the structure to ensure it is safe for use. Soft plays by their nature are designed to encourage children to take risks in a controlled environment. Our centre is designed to make this process as safe and fun as possible. We have at least one member of staff that is trained in first aid during off-peak periods and two members of staff during peak days. We have staff trained in both paediatric and general first aid. All of our staff are DBS checked.

Am I allowed to take photos or videos?

arrow
We allow pictures to be taken in the centre as long as you do not photograph other children in your picture.

Additional Needs

Do you offer sessions for SEND children?

arrow
We run SEND specific sessions on the 3rd Sunday of every month 4.30-7pm. You can find out more on the SEND and accessibility section of our website. We welcome children with additional needs at all times, but appreciate that some children may not be comfortable with a busy environment. Our afternoon sessions are usually the quietest, and therefore we recommend booking these as opposed to the busier mornings.

What SEND facilities do you have?

arrow
We are a SEND friendly and accessible centre. We have lots of information on the accessibility section of our website which includes a virtual tour to help prepare children or adults to visit us and know what to expect. All of our centre is wheelchair accessible. We have a disabled toilet on the ground floor. Our café is downstairs, making it accessible to all who wish to order food and beverages.  We can also make chill out space available for any children that experience sensory overload. Just ask a member of staff who will be able to help.

Rules of play

What are your age limits?

arrow
We cater for children 0-12 years old! We have a separate large baby sensory room for ages 0-2, a toddler area for 2-4 year olds, a role play arena for children up to 8 years old and a junior structure for children 5-12. Children may go into older age categories if closely supervised by an adult and it is safe to do so.

What should my children wear?

arrow
Children must wear socks whilst using the soft play equipment and walking around the centre. We advise wearing clothes that cover all parts of the body to avoid any friction burns going down the slides and also not to wear jewellery or glasses if possible. No shoes are permitted in the structure.

What’s your policy on parents supervising children?

arrow
Parents or carers are responsible for supervising their children at all times. We do offer holiday clubs where children are supervised as part of our childcare programme which can be booked separately during school holidays on our website.
