Natural Nest Play Cafe- Middletown

When booking the Nestling party package for my daughter’s 1st birthday party, I didn’t see a Gracie’s Corner theme but Kama went above and beyond to make it happen! She communicated with me throughout the entire process. I’m at a loss for words at how she pulled all of the decor together and how beautiful everything looked. She understood the assignment! She was so accommodating and her service skills are excellent too! They took care of everything which was a huge weight off of me. The only negative was that their Bluetooth speaker wasn’t connecting to my device to play my playlist. Amirah, who was an excellent host, worked it out though and played my playlist from her phone. She was on point and on top of things! I was also able to play a slideshow for the adults who hung out in the cafe area. My family, friends and their children all had a great time. We will definitely be back for playtime and future events. Thank you Natural Nest Play Cafe!

We had the absolute best experience hosting my daughter’s 4th birthday party at The Nest! From start to finish, everything was seamless, stress-free, and so thoughtfully done. My daughter and her 14 little friends had an amazing time — she hasn’t stopped talking about it since!

What I loved most as a parent was that we had the entire space to ourselves, which made it feel private, safe, and comfortable for all the kids and their families. The play area is clean, spacious, and filled with fun, age-appropriate toys and activities that kept the kids happily entertained for the entire party. No one was bored for even a second!

The party room was beautifully decorated with our chosen theme — princesses! There were colorful balloons, themed table settings, and cute little touches everywhere that made the space feel magical. The Nest team truly went above and beyond with the setup. They even took care of the goodie bags and organizing the food, which was such a huge help. I literally just had to show up with the cake!

The staff was incredibly friendly, organized, and attentive throughout the event. They made sure everything ran smoothly and that both the kids and adults were having a great time. It was honestly one of the easiest and most enjoyable birthday parties we’ve ever hosted.

If you’re looking for a fun, safe, and stress-free party venue for young children, I highly recommend The Nest. We’ll definitely be coming back for future celebrations!

I really love the atmosphere here. My two kids really enjoy it. We haven't been able to go due to distance and pricing. Hoping maybe it will go back onto the FunFull app so making the drive would be more worth it! <3

Great play cafe. Cleaned frequently, Great condition quality toys and very kind staff. Have done numerous classes and play visits. Definitely reccomened!!

We love coming to the Play Cafe.. we have gone there for open play, dance class and the Pizza with Bluey event and each time it was a wonderful experience and we will continue to come back

My 15 month old had a great time at Movers & Shakers, and really enjoyed the play area and toys. This is a great spot for littles and parents 💕 safe, comfortable, and fun. We will definitely be back!

We love coming here! My daughter can play for hours and never get bored! We've attended events and classes and have a great time at it all!

We had a fun time. They have different areas for different ages. We came with our 10 month old and he had a blast. Fun enough for us to make the 45 minute drive every other week

Very nice place to bring your small children. The only thing I would like to see more colors.

We recently hosted our son’s 3rd birthday party at The Nest Play Café, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! The space was perfect for little ones—clean, safe, and full of engaging activities that kept the kids entertained the entire time. The play area is thoughtfully designed, allowing kids to explore freely while parents can relax and enjoy the celebration.

The staff was incredibly accommodating and attentive, making sure everything ran smoothly. They helped with setup, checked in throughout the party, and made sure we had everything we needed. It was so nice to be able to enjoy the moment without stressing over the little details! Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Our son had the best time, and all of our guests raved about how fun and stress-free the party was. We highly recommend The Nest Play Café for any toddler or preschooler’s birthday celebration! We’ll definitely be back.

Cute place. .. but lacks the total package. One would think if you see “cafe” that it would have coffee or something of the sorts for the moms while the kids play. But there’s just keurig and water cooler for hot water for tea. They could do way better.
The other issue is the lack of music…. We went and my kids were the only ones, along with the workers child playing. We could hear the daycare next door with screaming children and it was odd with no music.
It’s a cute setup, but my 4 year old was bored before the 2 hrs were even up. I think they do more to make it entertaining.

Great place to bring little kids to play with a clean safe environment. Very relaxing and great staff.

I hate to write a negative review, but I have tried to reach the owner twice by leaving voicemails & have not received a call back. I took my son there for the first time recently where he was hurt. We were the ONLY people in there & my son started screaming crying, I was consoling him as best I could & not once did the young woman who was working turn around to see if everything was okay. My son IMMEDIATELY ended up with a huge knot on his head so I asked the woman if she had ice for me (to help the swelling) & I asked for a paper towel (to wipe his nose & tears) & she moved as slow as molasses. I had to politely ask her if she could please hurry with the paper towels & she then asked “yeah, oh did something happen to him?” -__- & I told her yes… I’m not sure how she did not catch on to that, again as we are the ONLY people in there, it’s a small and quiet place. After moving very slowly with no sense of urgency, she finallt gave me some ice wrapped in a paper towel (guess they didn’t have ice packs?) & some paper towels. I finally got my son to settle down & decided to leave to care for him further. As we are leaving, I said goodbye to her & she just says goodbye have a good day…no “is he okay, how did it happen, do you need anything else?” NOTHING… I am very disappointed, especially as a children’s establishment that they had such lack of care & concern. We will not be coming back here.

We celebrated our little one’s first birthday here! We had the peacock party package and it was absolutely worth it. The theme was on point and handled with care, down to the last detail. It was absolutely a wonderful and fun time for all! I would highly recommended this place for your next party! We also love coming for “public play.” The premise of this play place is so perfect, there really aren’t that many places for getting out of the house with your little one. We love the Nest!

I went today for the first time. It was very clean. The young lady (Janiyah) working was very friendly. My son is 4 and he really enjoyed it. Will come again!
