Parents with young kids can soon get a break. Mulberry Lane Play Café, a new daycare/ cafe/coworking office will officially open its doors in Del Ray on Saturday, Nov. 16.
Here’s the idea: While parents relax or work in an adjacent cafe/coworking office, their one-to-six-year-old kids can hang out for up to three hours at a time in a supervised play area.
Month-to-month memberships are between $300 and $500, and membership for siblings is $250. Neighborhood Restaurant Group will provide breakfast and lunch options, according to Alexandria Living Magazine.
“We are aiming to hold our grand opening event on November 17, featuring an open house and ribbon-cutting ceremony,” said Stella Borou, Mulberry Lane cofounder and general manager.
Mulberry Lane described itself as a place where parents can enjoy “special adult-focused events such as happy hours, wine tastings, and other gatherings designed just for parents,” according to their website.
“Mulberry Lane is more than just a play space; it’s where children can explore, create, and connect, while parents find a moment of balance in their busy lives,” the business said. “This space is not just for work—it’s a place where parents can connect, socialize, and meet like-minded families.”
