Gainesville’s First Family Club


A place for families to play, learn,
connect, and belong.

Carnaby & Oak is a members’ club purpose-built for the whole family. We started with a simple idea: Family time should work for the whole family. For kids, that means room to play, create, imagine and explore. For parents, it means somewhere to grab a coffee, catch up on work, or simply join in and spend time together. 

 

Come for an hour. Stay for the afternoon.

Kids who are obsessed. Parents who are not exhausted

The Playspace

A design-led play world — ball pit, climbing, sensory, soft play, Supervised when you want it to be

Your Third Space

Workstations & parents’ lounge – A place to catch-up on emails or with friends, get involved with the kids or take a moment to yourself. 

Studios & Classes

Art, blocks, STEM and much more!

Carnaby’s membership is built around community

The kind that comes from showing up often. A membership is how you become part of that. A say in what opens next as the café, classes and more roll out through October, and no pressure to make every visit count for something. Come for the jungle gym, stay for the coffee, or just pass through — it’s all part of your everyday.
