| - My kids literally beg me to take them here. The facility is awesome. Theres a huge play structure, ipads yo draw on, a play house area, a train set, and a dance dance revolution type setup with music and lights that kids chase on the rug - and thats just what can be seen from the front lobby. If i were a kid, id beg my parents to come here too.
For parents of young children, finding a good babysitter can be a challenge. This place eliminates the search entirely and allows you to drop your child here for $6, $7 $8 or $9 per hour, depending on their age and whether or not its the weekend.
While they do take infants & toddlrs, its a good idea to call ahead & reserve a spot for your under 2.5 year old, as they have a special room for these tots & theres limited availability.
All of the station casinos that offer kids quest are required by law to have immunizations on hand. Theyll let it slide the first time, but after that youre required by law to have them. If youre from out of state, bring them along unless you only plan to use their services once.
Other things to know: if your child isnt potty trained yet, tell the staff they need potty patrol. Id been bringing my kids here for a long time before i figured out by a soiled diaper that they werent changing my three year old. They never told me i had to tell them "potty patrol". I thought the diaper bag would be enough. Not so.
They also offer meals for your little one, and my kids tell me theyre tasty, though not terribly nutritional (chicken nuggets, pizza & burgers grace the menu). You can also tell the staff that your kids can have drinks if they want.
Theres a five hour max stay here for any given day, and you must stsy in the casino (yea, ive had them call me back before).
So dont think this will replace daycare.
Finally, the staff seem to be attentive & caring, and theres usually a good staff to kid ratio. The floor is open & viewable from the casino, which i like, but if you dont, red rock has a closed-off kids quest with doors. We have brought our kids there and to the boulder station kq, and have had similar good experiences.
1 star off for two reasons: the potty patrol thing, and also the price. If you have more than one kid, it adds up QUICK, esp. If the kidshave dinner here. With 3 kids, weve often paid over $100.
Dont forget sox! Youll pay $2 a pair if you do - and theyare UGLY! Lol
