Can dads drop off their kids at Luciole?

By Jinane & Sophanie, founders of Luciole·
Short answer

Of course. Luciole was founded by two moms, but it is for every parent. Dads and single fathers can book workshops and supervised drop-off play for their children, then work or relax in the café a few steps away.

How it works for dads

  1. Message us on WhatsApp with your child's age and the time you need.
  2. On arrival, register your child and leave a phone number where we can reach you.
  3. Your child joins a workshop or supervised play with our team.
  4. You stay in the café with a coffee, or head out for your errands.

A Saturday idea

On weekends the café opens at 8:00 am and the atelier at 10:00 am. Have breakfast and a coffee first, drop the kids at a workshop, and pick them up with something they made. We wrote a dad's guide to a Saturday in Jounieh with more ideas.

Toddlers aged 1 to 3 join sensory play with a parent alongside, so dads are welcome to join those sessions too.
