Playdate Cafe
A FREE enjoyable playtime for young children and their favorite big people! This event encourages staying and playing together; it’s not a drop-off arrangement. Every Wednesday during the school year from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., no RSVP needed.
Frequently asked PDC questions
When is Playdate Cafe open?
Wednesdays 9-11:30 a.m. We follow the Hillsborough County Public School calendar. This program does not run during Thanksgiving, Christmas, Spring Break or Summer Vacation.
Is there a cost associated?
No, it is free! It is our gift to those who take care of babies up and through to young 4 year old’s.
What can I expect?
Our goal for PDC is to give parents a break to talk with other parents and network while their children play. You are not required to arrive on time and stay the full duration as there is no set program. We do ask that you remain with your children.
What are cleaning protocols?
Volunteers monitor toys to ensure they aren’t placed in children’s mouths, removing them for sanitizing. After each session, all equipment is sprayed with sanitizer and allowed to dry for 2 minutes. Most play equipment is used only once a week for optimal disinfection.
What age groups are allowed to attend?
This program is designed for infants to young 4 year olds, prior to attending VPK.
Do I have to be a member of the church to participate?
No, everyone is welcome!
