Weekend business idea

Hear me out...
I know mums love spending weekends with kids but do you ever feel burnt out and wish there was more options for child care at weekends? Especially with much younger kids.
What are your thoughts on a nursery style set up at weekends where mum's would also attend but meals and a safe environment for babies/toddlers to play would be provided? Mums would be expected to attend it would be a "mummy x nanny" set up for mums to have time to be present and play with kids outside of the house but not be busy with chores and lunch prep? Thinking 8 months to 24 months or so as this seems to be the hardest age... amenities for younger ones to nap if needed too.
No idea on pricing structure, would want it to be reasonable/aftordable, just a concept for weekends. Looking to utilise local/existing nursery facilities to rent out at weekends.

That's not providing childcare though, just the environment? Those that can afford it would employ a nanny, or join family club. Not sure who your target market would be. A creche may be more saleable.

Sounds like one step further than soft play.
And presumably the chores would still need doing by somebody.
What is really missing/difficult to find is actual weekend/evening childcare for shift workers.

This sounds like soft play or play centre if the mum has to stay.

I’d want to drop my child off & go! Like proper nursery/school!

It sounds a bit pointless if the mum has to stay. And what are the Dads doing in this scenario? Chilling at home enjoying their weekend leisure time? Hmm

At weekends new mums probably want to see other kids/husband/family to friends that work in the week.
