Our Story
 

Mini & Me Play Café – where play meets peace of mind.

Founded by two mums, Katey and Esme, Mini & Me Play Café was born from a shared dream: to create a space where both parents and children feel truly at home.

 

With three little ones between us, we understand how special it is to find a safe, enriching environment where kids can play freely, while parents can relax, recharge, and enjoy good coffee (and maybe even a slice of cake).

 

Our play area is thoughtfully designed around Montessori principles, encouraging curiosity, independence, and imagination through purposeful, open-ended play. We are also proud to be a welcoming and inclusive space for children with SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities), with thoughtful features and staff who are committed to making sure every child feels supported, safe, and celebrated.

 

Whether you’re dropping by for a quiet moment or meeting friends for a playdate, we’re so excited to welcome you to Mini & Me – where playtime meets peace of mind.

Our graduates

Children graduate Bright Horizons programs with the skills they need to succeed in private or public school. In surveys, kindergarten and first grade teachers report that Bright Horizons graduates are enthusiastic learners who are socially and academically ready for the years ahead.

As well as the local language in each country our preschools are based in, we offer various ‘immersion classes’ in the afternoons, such as Mandarin, French or Arabic. In some centers, we give bilingual lessons – although primarily, the native tongue of every Safari Kid kindergarten branch is English!
