The winter months can seem impossible when it comes to keeping gate children entertained, as outdoor activities aren’t possible. During this time, a membership to a children’s private members club can be a godsend—the entire family can descend upon the club for an entire day, and everyone can be fed and entertained—and kept warm.

George

A popular and coveted membership for adults, George now offers the younger generation their own membership with their own set of benefits. The George Junior Membership features special events, newsletters, games, and more for children. They have input on the club’s menu, and a Kid’s Committee where they can interact and make friends with their fellow members. A charitable and conscious component is also present—recently, they met to discuss plastic waste.

Purple Dragon

This club has had a waiting list since it opened. The massive Chelsea space offers everything from a swimming pool to mini golf to language lessons to cooking classes, all under one roof. There are many classes and activities for parents and children to enjoy together, but plenty of options as well if a break is needed. The in-house concierge team handles requests throughout the day, making sure everyone is enjoying themselves and happy.

Cloud 12

A newcomer to Notting Hill, this club features primarily eco-friendly and sustainable furniture and toys, and is decorated using the principals of Feng Shui. It has a slew of elevated offerings geared toward parents—not to say the children are forgotten, however. The plant-based brasserie serves delicious food all day, and there is a separate children’s cafe and lounge. The focussed wellness offerings appeal to the whole family—there is a comprehensive spa—with sauna, steam, and salt rooms—and a full-service salon as well. The crèche is fully stocked with myriad activities, and should your child become attached to their caregiver, their services can often be hired for the home.

A colorful indoor playground features a slide with blue and green sections, climbing holds, and a tunnel shaped like a yellow and black bug. Wooden poles and a birdhouse decor add to the playful, nature-themed environment.
