Sensory Considerations

We believe every family deserves space to play.

Meridian offers a spacious environment but does not currently provide sensory-specific accommodations.

Garden City is being designed with sensory considerations in mind to better support a wide range of needs within our community.

Food & Gathering

Because sometimes staying a little longer is exactly what the day needs.

Both locations offer full meal menu options, grab and go snacks, and beverages to order.

Outside food and drink is allowed.
