Our Story

When I became a mom I knew that I was trading my nightlife for play dates but as a DJ, I couldn’t understand why kids entertainment and parent events never intersected.

Us parents will attend any event we think our children will take pleasure in, but rarely do we simultaneously relish in that same feeling. And with so much outside pressure to socialize children, what about socializing ourselves? Where can like-minded parents find their joy and community while their kids do the same?

Enter…A Parently Kidding. A dance party for families where everyone is welcome with a staff of HELPERS that are there to do just that. Because, Parents, we know that at any moment you can feel like it’s all falling apart, but here - you won’t.

Because experiencing joy with our kids is not only possible,  it might be the most meaningful way we can connect them and isn’t that what we all want?

What We Do

A Parently Kidding bridges the gap between kids entertainment and parent events. A place where caretakers can meet likeminded adults and listen to their favorite jams being spun by famous DJ’s during appropriate wake hours!

A team of our vetted HELPERS will help guide the kiddos on the dance floor as our internationally known DJ’s will also play kids songs. You can sip on an adult beverage (alcoholic or non), socialize with other cool parents or just cut a rug!

Bringing a baby? They are free all day and will have access to the BABY BOOGIE tumble pad, so you don’t need to hold them the whole time.

Need a break from the party? Head right outside the door to our CHILL ZONE to breastfeed, give calm to your child or change a diaper.
