Part-Time & Full-Time Opportunities
About Check N’ Play
Check N’ Play is a premium family play café for young children and their caregivers. Our Play Attendants help create a safe, welcoming, clean, and engaging experience for every family.
This is not a passive supervision role. Team members stay active throughout the shift—engaging with children, assisting families, maintaining play areas, supporting activities and events, and helping the operation run smoothly.
We are especially interested in applicants who bring both energy and reliability.
Experience in caregiving, healthcare support, senior care, assisted living, memory care, direct support, childcare, education, hospitality, or other service-focused roles can translate very well to this position.
What You’ll Do
- Maintain an active, visible presence throughout the play space
- Engage warmly and appropriately with young children and caregivers
- Support play, crafts, sensory activities, storytime, and other programming
- Use calm, positive redirection when children need assistance
- Identify safety concerns and respond quickly
- Continuously clean, sanitize, organize, and reset guest areas
- Help families with check-in, waivers, memberships, and basic transactions
- Assist with birthday parties and events, including setup and cleanup
- Support front desk, retail, and café operations when needed
- Follow all safety, sanitation, and operating procedures
Who We’re Looking For
We want people who are:
Active: You enjoy being on your feet, moving, interacting with people, and staying engaged.
Dependable: Your team can count on you to arrive on time and reliably work your scheduled shifts.
Patient: You remain calm and positive when children or families need support.
Observant: You notice safety concerns, guest needs, spills, or areas needing attention before they become problems.
Service-minded: You naturally look for ways to help others and make their experience better.
Professional: You communicate comfortably with children, parents, caregivers, and coworkers.
Experience We Value
Relevant backgrounds may include:
- Professional caregiving or home care
- Senior care, assisted living, or memory care
- CNA, HHA, patient-support, or healthcare roles
- Direct Support Professional or respite care
- Behavioral or developmental support
- Childcare, preschool, camps, or education
- Hospitality or guest service
You do not need previous indoor-play experience.
If you have worked in a role where other people depended on you, many of those skills—patience, responsibility, awareness, communication, and consistency—transfer directly to Check N’ Play.
This can be an opportunity to use those skills in a positive, social, family-centered environment focused on play and hospitality.
Scheduling & Requirements
We are looking for applicants with consistent, dependable availability, including weekends.
- CPR Certification required or willingness to obtain
- Food Handler Card required for applicable duties or willingness to obtain
- Ability to perform an active role involving standing, walking, bending, cleaning, lifting, and moving throughout the facility
If you are dependable, active, caring, and comfortable working with people, we would like to hear from you.
