Company details
Written by the company
In 2015, The Playtime Company was established while Lilli assumed the role of a stay-at-home mother for her eldest son Alfie, while her partner Tanel worked full-time. Following several years of marketing small-scale nursery and playtime items, we initiated a home-based soft play service, commencing with ball pits, which we further expanded with our best-selling soft play products. In 2017, following the birth of our second son Harley, Tanel resigned from his employment to join our business, which subsequently became our primary household income source. Though a daunting decision, we invested our unwavering commitment and diligent efforts into the enterprise, resulting in its prosperous growth since then. In 2018, we welcomed our third son Ozzie, and were fortunate to have the flexibility of working from home, enabling us to balance our business responsibilities with caring for our three children. In 2021, we successfully relocated to our very own UK warehouse, where we now store, package, and dispatch all our products, ensuring a fast and dependable service. This accomplishment is a source of immense pride for us, motivating us to strive for further growth and success. When you choose to shop with The Playtime Company, you are not merely supporting a small business; you are supporting a family enterprise. We are personally involved in every aspect of our operations, from providing customer service to packing and dispatching orders. Every order we receive is highly valued, and we aim to demonstrate our gratitude through our attentive customer service and meticulous care. Please note, we still celebrate every order received with a happy dance! We hope this glimpse into our family enterprise provides you with a better understanding of who we are and why we are passionate about serving you. To stay updated on our journey, please visit our official Instagram account, @theplaytimecompany. There you can learn more about us and our small business. We appreciate your time in reading our story and considering our products. Sincerely, Lilli, Tanel, Alfie, Harley, and Ozzie.

Best around!
I buy from The Playtime Company all the time for my mobile soft play business in Cumbria.
Service is amazing, staff are so friendly and they cannot help you enough!
Would recommend to anyone not just owners of Soft Play businesses. The best soft play company I am yet to come across.
Thanks Lilli & the team!

10/10 customer service, products and delivery.
After initially missing out on a fantastic offer on a discontinued colour of the castle set I sent a mesg asking if one did for any reason become available again could they please let me know.
My luck was in - everything was so easy and we are delighted with the castle block set.

Lovely quality soft play and equipment…..
I have used this company for my own childrens gifts and for my company’s soft play hire.
The products are of good quality, the services is great, if I have any had any questions or queries they have been answered promptly!
We have ordered a white bouncy castle and can’t wait to receive it!
It’s great to see a company like this doing so well!

10/10 customer service
Highly recommend the beautiful products by The Playtime Company & the fast reliable delivery service. Any queries are responded to quickly & always kept up to date with status of order.
All items are in stock which is a huge bonus rather than having to wait 2-3 weeks for delivery like similar business's.
I will definitely be buying again!

I ordered a round ball pit & 300 balls on Thursday 10th March,early hours of the morning after I finished feeding my daughter.
The company states if you order before 1pm it's next day delivery.
My daughter's 1st birthday is on the 13th March so I thought it's perfect for the next day delivery.
I never got a dispatch notification and it got to Saturday and I knew it wasn't going to get here whatsoever.
I understand it was the weekend and I didn't expect a company to reply back to my Email regarding what had happened to my order and why hadn't it arrived the next day or even Saturday.
The ball pits aren't the cheapest item at £85.00 but I knew my daughter would love it and how good all the reviews had been and it looked perfect ready for her 1st birthday!
I received an Email back Monday, i appreciate how quick the company replied to me as I was getting a little annoyed that my daughter had missed one of her birthday presents.
They told me that they hadn't got any more round ball pits in-stock until the Wednesday (16th) so I could wait until then for one to be delivered for the next working day.
Or I could have a square ball pit instead that can be delivered the next working day (Tuesday)
They did apologise about the error.
I appreciate the apology,but what I didn't appreciate it that they didn't apologise for the fact that they shouldn't let you go through with a purchase if they haven't got the item in stock,that it was for my daughter's special birthday and not a apology for that.
I've received the square ball pit and it looks just as good as the round one so I'm happy with the item.
I was wanting to order a soft play bundle for Christmas for both of my child this year but with this happening it has put me off a little bit which is a shame.

Step and slide
Ordered the grey step and slide set for my little boy whilst soft play centres were all closed over lock down. Ordered and it arrived the next morning. Amazing service and amazing quality. Hours of fun for my little boy. Couldn’t recommend this company and their products enough!! Amazing.

Pastel mix bundle
I ordered the pastel mix midi slide and ball pit as part of a bundle for my daughters first birthday and she absolutely loves it, even our 5yo son enjoys playing with it. It's such a god send to keep the little one entertained when I'm working from home! The colours are stunning and the quality is amazing. The delivery and customer service are outstanding, I'd definitely recommend to anyone looking to buy soft play items & I will be purchasing more when I can find space to keep it all!

The Step and Slide is the best thing we have ever bought as parents! Our little one has Cerebral Palsy and Epilepsy, this has helped to build his confidence, helped him learn to confidently climb steps and helped build his strength and muscle, I cannot recommend it enough!
Also fantastic company to purchase from, so very professional❤️

Mega bundle
I ordered the mega bundle of the step and slide, ball pit and building blocks on Saturday, and it was delivered today (I'm sure being quite local helped the speed of it) but extremely quick delivery for a weekend order. Now if you want to order for Christmas especially the mega bundle keep it mind it does come it a few massive boxes so make sure you have the storage (totally my fault for not thinking about it) thankfully with his birthday being this weekend I can give him some of it for his birthday and some for Christmas and not worry about storage. Opened all the boxes to check quality/everything was there which is was and the quality of it all is incredible. Overall I am overjoyed with my order, would totally recommend and can't wait for my son to start playing with it all. A massive thank you!
