November Events!

As a mother to five boys, and a former foster parent, who was raised by a social worker, Cassy recognizes the importance of play and community for children and their parents. Her goal is to create a space where children can exercise their endless energy and imagination. When she isn't working to make That Play Place somewhere she'd want to take her kids, you can find her running Wilder Party supplies, volunteering her time to her community, or trying to get through her TBR list. 

Miss Kathie has worked in child development for over 30 years, and more importantly, raised four amazing children and supports them as they raise her 13 grandbabies. This woman has seen it all, and maintains there is no one way to raise a child. When she isn't working at That Play Place, you can find her helping families at Iroquois School District, with her grandbabies, or at a concert. Miss Kathie has yet to come across a question about child development and early education she couldn't answer or find a referral for, and we are so lucky to have her at That Play Place!

We’re excited to welcome Miss Cait to the team at That Play Place! She’s a mom of 2 with over 10 years of experience as a coach and trainer in the Fitness and Health industry. A recent transplant from Colorado, Miss Cait is diving into all that Erie has to offer. We’re thrilled to have her on board!

Jake is a man who married a woman who wanted to show their 5 sons that women can do anything. He is also certified to inspect and maintain playgrounds and bounce houses; which means he is the guy who makes sure everything is safe for your little ones. He is an amazing man who does other stuff, but is mostly playing the supporting role in this endeavor. 

  Stephen is a father who takes his love of playtime with his children and mixes it with his enthusiasm to make a better environment. With a background that features over 15 years of mental health and early childhood development programs, Stephen brings a creative mindset that helps with the ideas to improve the much-needed socialization skills of children while promoting a safe and productive environment. Stephen may look like a big scary giant but with a little bit of time kids seem to pick up with the giant soft teddy bear that he truly is.
