13.01.2022 Pint-Size Play is CLOSING DOWN. It is with a heavy heart that I am announcing my decision to close my doors at the end of June this year. I have wrestled with this decision, I have tried to hang on and get through it. But Covid hit us badly, and despite all the amazing support I have been getting, I just can't keep going. My mental and physical health is suffering, and I can't keep putting myself and my family through it all.... I love what I do. I believe in my business. I truly believe that if we hadn't have had the setbacks we did with the shop initially and Covid hadn't have happened then things would be very different today. Those things were out of our hands, and now I've just gotta deal with the hand I've been dealt. Pint-Size will continue to operate until the end of June. There will be some sales on stock, and pretty much everything in the shop will be for sale including some of our resources and cafe items. There will be some changes to opening times that will be announced soon as I need to take some time for myself to cope mentally and possibly find another job to help me pay off my giant mountain of debt Everyone has been so amazing, and I just want to thank everyone who has been in, encouraged us, supported us, and been there for us. I cannot begin to say how much it has meant to me! Thank you. #closing #covidsucks #smallbusiness #supportsmallbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #swanhillbusiness #swanhill_local #swanhill

12.01.2022 Have you seen these snails from Plan Toys? How CUTE We've got some in stock so grab one online or come instore from Wednesday! Www.pintsizeplayaus.com

11.01.2022 | Announcement and Goodbye from Rachael! | Hey all! Rachael here! 2020 has been a difficult year for a lot of people around the world and locally; that is true for me as well! There have been many changes over the last year that I have been struggling to deal with- my personal life, health, mental health, and also with Covid and Pint-Size. I am saddened to say that with everything this year has been, and with some deep soul searching of what I want my life to be moving into... my future with my family, I have concluded that self-employment is not for me. I will be finishing off 2020 with Pint-Size Play, in a very reduced capacity (childminding and occasional days at the Hub) and will be stepping out of the partnership as soon as we can organise it. We started Pint-Size Play in 2018. Lisa came to me with the idea and it grew into a business where we were passionate about providing opportunities for families in the region to explore and play together. I am very proud of what we have achieved, and it is difficult to say goodbye. It has been an amazing experience to build this business from the ground up and had the best time doing it with my best friend. I couldn’t take this step and move onto something new if we hadn’t gotten the business through the covid closures and if I wasn’t confident the business was in a position that Lisa and Jayde could maintain and grow! I am honoured to have met everyone I have met through the business, and insanely proud of the business and community we have built and I can’t wait to see what Lisa and her future team will provide! No matter who you are, head into the Hub, grab a coffee, support local business. I will be regularly! Want to see me before I go? I’ll be at the Swan Hill Farmer's Market the 1st Sunday of the month and at the Hub Sunday’s 10-2. Goodbye, and Thank you again for all the opportunities, laughs, and good times!

03.01.2022 Hey all! Quick message from Rachael: You may notice I am not in the Hub as often! Pint-size play got contracted to do some childminding 3 days a week, and I am filling that position; which leaves me needing my weekend later in the week when the Hub is open! With this year being what it has been, my personal life, study and work balance had got a little out of control and I couldn’t keep on top of working 7 days a week and studying! So you will see me at the Hub Sundays, the Farmers market the first Sunday of the month. But other than that, I will mostly be filling playdough orders, restocking our playdough and doing any childminding jobs that pop up! Please continue supporting our small business, we are excited to have Jayde on board to help Keep things moving as our business grows and grows!

02.01.2022 We are so proud of the environment we have created, the children can explore and have fun, safe and secure near by their caregivers while the caregivers can enjoy their cuppa and a chat! #play #relax #familyfriendly #opennow

02.01.2022 Big & Small Art with Lorri Lambert Art & Therapy is an opportunity for adult and child to bond through art exploration & creation. Each week will be something new and different!
