A place where little hearts feel right at home.

Our Story

It started with five kids and one impossible search.

Gera raised five children while working full time. Every year brought the same exhausting hunt: somewhere safe, somewhere warm, somewhere she could actually afford. Too often she had to choose two out of three.

“I built the place I kept looking for and never found.”

Playful Pals opened in 2025 with eight children and one rule that still guides everything: treat every child like one of your own. That's why our ratios stay small, our caregivers stay for years, and our doors stay open to parents any hour of the day.
