What to do while you wait... 

Lobby

We love to have you hang with us in our newly remodeled lobby. Your children are always welcome to play with our toys (located in the new storage ottomans under the TV), read books and enjoy a movie.   

Our laptop bar is up and fully functional. Our wi-fi is free and available to all. The password is dancer5678. 

 

We have snacks and water available in our vending machines in the main floor hallway. Along with brand new one-way viewing windows into all of our main floor studios.Hallway

And, if you need a pick-me-up, we have suckers for parents and kids alike at the front desk and are always happy to brew you a cup of coffee at any time, just ask!

   

We know that at times it gets very busy in our lobby. This is a blessing for us, but sometimes not conducive to reading a book or surfing the web while you wait. Our quiet/study room is available upstairs for anyone interested. You can curl up on the couch for a quick nap, do homework at the desk or just sit and enjoy some relative quiet time. To get to the quiet/study room, go upstairs and to the right (into Loft I) and take a right.

 

We also have some great neighbors that you should check out. Take a quick walk next door to check out a wonderful indoor dog park, Ruff House!
