Montessori style indoor play space for toddlers inside Big C Chaweng. Stay and play, or drop-off with nanny supervision (ask the venue).
UniKids is a bright, clean Montessori inspired play space for younger children on the grounds of Big C in Chaweng, with wooden toys, sensory play, crafting and books. Parents can stay and play, and the venue is reported to offer drop-off with nanny supervision at a higher hourly rate. It shares the building with Rick Tew's NinjaGym and Le Blocks Playroom, so a toddler and an older child can be in two places without anyone driving. These details come from a parent blog, not yet from the venue itself, so confirm the ages and the drop-off when you arrive.
