Pamper & Play set to open in Blandford Forum this summer

Two mums, Nathalie and Hannah have teamed up to introduce a new role play cafe concept tailored specifically for mums. Pamper & Play Ltd, will be a haven where mums can socialise and be treated with on-site hair and beauty services while their little ones engage in playful activities.

Nathalie said: “We met when our two boys started Reception in September 2023. We clicked from day one, and have so many similarities and things in common that it feels as though we have been friends forever! We believe that Mums deserve to be treated and cared for, and that there should be no judgement. I have had this idea for a little while, mostly because I can only seem to get my hair done once a year due to trying to fit it around my partner having the kids or them being in nursery/school! This seemed crazy to me. I realised I couldn't be the only mum to have this difficulty, so one day I discussed it with Hannah when we were walking home from the park with the boys - and voila! An idea, and an awesome hairdresser came together to make a business!”

Nathalie and Hannah hope to open their new venture in June, in time for the school holidays.

“We will be honest, and say we are terrified! We will be doing a launch event, and giving away a couple of free entries picked at random following a competition.”

There will be parking, and refreshments serving both hot and cold drinks, as well as cakes and snacks available.

The role play cafe will be for children aged 0-8 years.

Opening hours will be 10-5 Tuesday to Saturday.

You will also be able to hire the venue for parties. This will be available on a Sunday, where they will also be offering pamper parties and private mobile pamper nights with optional babysitting.
