WORK. PLAY. GROW.

Starting early 2026, The Soft Spot Kinderhook is opening a parent-friendly co-working and drop-off childcare space in the historic Kinderhook Guild building.

Book a 3-hour childcare block and use that time however you need. Work on-site, run errands, or just breathe. That time is yours.

    Your Community

    The Soft Spot was started by fellow parents who get it. Now, The Soft Spot Kinderhook continues that ethos by offering co-working and childcare with parents in mind. Meet other parents in the community or take time alone, this is your new village.
