Jump for Joy
Finding Solace in Unexpected Places:
This Mom’s Experience at Jump for Joy
I was exhausted.
After a long night of playing musical bedrooms—switching between my baby’s room and my toddler’s—I felt like a zombie the next morning. Somehow, we managed to get out the door, and I found myself heading straight for Jump for Joy.
Dishes I don’t have to do!!
Irene, the owner, greeted me with a huge, warm smile, and at that moment, it felt like a lifesaver. The coffee was hot, my kids were happy, and the best part? I didn’t have to clean up the toys they eagerly pulled out.
Jump for Joy quickly became my sanctuary. It was a space where I could take a breather while my kids played safely in a fun and engaging environment. And after that first visit, I knew I had stumbled upon a gem in the middle of my chaotic parenting world.
Since that discovery, I’ve sent *hundreds* of parents and their babies to Jump for Joy for meetups and playgroups. Irene and her amazing team never fail to welcome us with open arms, no matter how busy they are, even on PA days. It’s more than just a play space—it’s a community hub where parents can recharge, relax, and connect with other families.
They even have a baby area for floor play and tummy time exploration!
With two convenient locations, Jump for Joy has become a favorite spot for many East End Mom Friends playgroups. Whether it’s a quiet morning playdate or a full-blown PA day event, this space provides what every parent dreams of—a stress-free outing where you can actually enjoy the moment.
If you haven’t been to Jump for Joy yet, I can’t recommend it enough. It’s more than a play space—it’s a place of comfort, friendship, and those all-important moments of peace we all need as parents. My daughter recently started school and hasn’t been attending as much, and no word of a lie this girl has been carrying a photo of Jump for Joy in her backpack “to get excited for the next time we go”. If that isn’t a reason to play hooky, I don’t know what is!
So, the next time you’re running on fumes, grab your little ones, head to Jump for Joy, and let Irene and her team take care of the rest. You deserve it.
