Terms and Conditions for Mulberry Lane Play Café
Effective Date: [November 11, 2024]
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern the use of Mulberry Lane Play Café facilities and services by parents, guardians, and their children (“Participants”). By purchasing a pass or membership or by entering the premises, Participants agree to these Terms. Please review them carefully.
1. Service Overview and Parental Responsibility
• Nature of Services: Mulberry Lane Play Café provides supervised play services, access to structured classes, interactive activities, and member-only events. Mulberry Lane is not a drop-off service; parents or guardians must remain on-site during their child’s supervised play.
• Excluded Care Services: Supervision does not include diaper changing, feeding, administering medications, or other personal care tasks. These responsibilities remain with the parent or guardian, and parents will be notified if their child needs such attention.
• Parental Presence Requirement: Parents or guardians are required to stay on the premises while children are in supervised play. Acceptable areas include the café, co-work space, and partner restaurants (Evening Star Café, Front Porch, Hi-Fi Tex-Mex BBQ). Parents must be available to respond to their child’s needs immediately.
2. Membership and Pass Terms
• Auto-Renewal Policy: Memberships are subject to automatic renewal as outlined in the membership agreement. Payment will be billed to the card on file at each renewal interval. Participants are responsible for ensuring payment information is up to date.
• Cancellation Policy: Participants may cancel memberships by providing written notice at least 15 before the next billing cycle. Cancellations after this period may result in charges for the upcoming cycle.
• Refund Policy: Refunds are not provided for cancellations after the start of the billing cycle. Early termination fees may apply for cancellations prior to the end of a contract term if applicable.
3. Assumption of Risk and Liability Waiver
• Waiver Requirement: All Participants must sign the liability waiver before entering Mulberry Lane Play Café. This waiver releases Mulberry Lane from liability for injuries or accidents that may occur during supervised play.
• Assumption of Risk: Participants acknowledge that supervised play involves inherent risks. By engaging in these activities, parents and guardians assume all risks associated with their child’s participation.
• Release of Liability: Mulberry Lane Play Café and its affiliates, employees, and agents are not liable for any injuries or damages arising from supervised play, use of the premises, or participation in activities.
4. Behavioral Standards and Facility Rules
• Conduct Requirements: All members and guests must adhere to the posted facility rules. Any violations, including disrespectful behavior or damaging property, may result in the termination of membership without refund.
• Parental Conduct: Parents and guardians are responsible for their children’s behavior and must cooperate with staff if behavior management is required.
• Facility Departure Prohibition: Parents and guardians may not leave the premises while their child is under supervised care. Leaving the facility without immediate availability may lead to suspension or termination of membership privileges.
5. Intellectual Property and Media Release
• By entering Mulberry Lane Play Café, Participants consent to the use of internal surveillance systems on the premises for safety and monitoring purposes. Mulberry Lane reserves the right to capture photographs or video content within the facility.

7. Cancellation and Refunds
• Cancellation Notice Requirement: Participants must notify Mulberry Lane in writing to membership@mulberrylaneva.com at least 15 in advance to cancel memberships. This ensures cancellation before the next billing cycle.
