Testimonials

Not only was the service great, the owner and her staff were incredibly accommodating and flexible. All of our partners’ children we cared for without incident and the owner was very communicative before, during, and after the event. Children at Play also brought their own supplies with them and they kept the kids (including a 6 month old baby) occupied while our event was going on. A truly phenomenal service!

My organization had a great experience with Ebony and her team! We hosted a large gala of 600 guests with over 30 children needing care. Ebony was very communicative leading up to the event and well prepared the day of the event. She had games, art, toys and necessities for babies. She and her team were involved and attentive, and the children had a great time! I highly recommend Children At Play and would not hesitate to use them again.

We had a great experience with Ebony and Children at Play Event Childcare. We were in Detroit for a wedding and needed child care for six rambunctious kids ranging from 1 1/2 to 4 1/2 years old. We were able to book CAPEC months in advance, which gave us the peace of mind to book the trip knowing that we had reliable child care in place for the night of the wedding.
The reservation process was smooth and easy. I spoke to Ebony by phone and she explained her services and confirmed that she could accommodate the size of our group. Once we decided to book CAPEC, we received a link to fill out all the necessary information online (i.e. allergy information and emergency contacts for each child). We then received a written agreement laying out all the terms and information we needed to plan ahead.
Given that we had a large group of six kids, Ebony brought a second staff member, Yolaunda. The two of them came very well prepared with plenty of toys and activities for the kids to play with. As soon as they arrived at the hotel they had the kids engaged with bubbles, balloons, and musical instruments. They also did a great job of comforting/distracting the kids so that the parents could slip out without causing a meltdown.
Throughout the evening Ebony texted us updates and pictures of the kids playing and enjoying themselves, which was very reassuring and put our minds at ease so we could enjoy the wedding festivities. When we got back to the hotel at midnight all of the kids were fast asleep. The next morning the kids told us how much fun they had with Ebony and Yolaunda, which is really the best feedback you can get.
Thank you Ebony, Yolaunda and Children At Play Event Childcare! We can’t thank you enough.
