Getting fit is so much easier when you have a fun, safe
and well-supervised place for your children to play while
you’re working out. The MCC offers far more than just
typical fitness center–style childcare. The KidZone is
not just a small room with a few games and toys to keep
children entertained - instead, it’s educational, enriching
and enjoyable for your kids! With an indoor playground,
computers with age-appropriate learning games and
software, arts and crafts, music, games and many more
stimulating activities, your children won’t want to leave!
We ensure your child’s safety with qualified staff.
