Baby Bear’s Play Cafe: Membership rules

What you can and cannot do

  • Only for you: Only the child(ren) and adult(s) whose names are on the list can use the membership. You cannot give your membership to someone else.

  • Play time only: Membership is for normal 90-minute play times. It does not include parties (like birthdays or Christmas), private events, or classes. Sometimes, we may offer special member discounts for these events.

  • Watching your children: Our rule for watching children stays the same. Parents or guardians must always watch their children (100% of the time).

Booking and missing sessions

  • Book before you come: You must book your time online. Your membership does not guarantee entry if you do not book, as the cafe might be too full. 

  • Canceling: If you cannot come, please try to cancel at least 12 hours before the session starts.

Paying and stopping membership

  • No money back: Monthly fees cannot be refunded. You will not get money back if you only use the membership part of the time, or if the cafe is closed for holidays or private parties.

  • Stop your membership (30-Day Notice): You must email us 30 days before you want to stop your membership. You will still pay for the membership within those 30 days, and you can keep using it until the payment period ends.

  • Price changes: Baby Bear’s Play Cafe can change the price of the membership. We will tell you about any price changes 60 days before they start.

Ending membership if rules are broken

  • If you share your booking details with people who are not members, or if you lie to bring children who are not registered, we will end your membership right away. You will not get money back for the rest of that month.

Cafe closures

  • We may need to close the cafe for important fixes (maintenance) or private parties. We will try to keep this short. If the cafe is closed for less than 5 days, you will not get a refund for your membership fee.
