Whether you need occasional help with the kids while you run errands or go to an appointment, or if you need regular afterschool care, or even a few hours each week so you can go to the gym, Ashley’s Playhouse can help you out. Ashley’s Playhouse is a drop-in childcare center for children ages 6 weeks to 12 years old in North Austin off of Highway 183. A great help for busy parents, this cute center is equipped with lots of fun indoor play features along with plenty of engaging activities for the kids.
Ashley’s Playhouse is also a great option for date nights since they are open late, even up to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. Hours are:
- Monday-Thursday: 7 a.m. – 10 p.m.
- Friday: 7 a.m. – midnight
- Saturday: 8 a.m. – midnight
Childcare prices are based on an hourly rate and prorated to the minute after the first hour. You can even opt to purchase meals for the kids, too, so their staff can take care of feeding the kids while they are there. If you choose, there is also a membership plan available where you can save 20% off drop-in childcare fees. You can learn all about pricing on their website here.
