About Orange Blossom Society
The Orange Blossom Society, located in downtown Redmond, Wash., is a place where children blossom while their parents recharge and reconnect. Whether your child is one or 11, we all need that place where we can take some time for ourselves, work with our child on a community project, or just simply be in the moment and visit with friends and family.  There’s no judgment or competition, strict rules or policies, it’s just an easy place to be that feels good and natural.

Orange Blossom Society is located in a beautiful tri-level craftsman house where kids walk in the door, kick off their shoes and feel right at home.  Our comfortable living room is always available for parents to enjoy free Wi-Fi and refreshments from the kitchen while their child plays or is in a class or camp. Upstairs, you will find rooms for art, afterschool programs, and massage.  Downstairs there’s space for yoga, tumbling, creative play and more. And outside (yes, there’s more!) you’ll find plenty of parking, a sports court and magical Children’s Garden.  It’s the perfect spot for a play date, family-friendly event, or that workshop or support group you need.

We are open to the public so membership is not required, but definitely has its benefits - free play, unlimited classes, discounts on camps & parties.  Our founder and instructors are following their true calling and are passionate, experienced and committed to the work that they do.  Most importantly, OBS was created for the families of our community – it’s your place to use however it fits your family best.  We look forward to making you feel at home at Orange Blossom Society.
