OUR STORY

Proudly women-owned

A place where children can be children — and parents can feel at home.

LOULOU HOUSE was created for families who want more from their time together: more imagination, more connection, more joyful moments — and fewer screens, compromises, and stressful outings. Here, children are free to play, create, and explore while parents can relax, connect, work nearby, or simply enjoy being present.

Designed for children. Thoughtfully created for parents.

WHY LOULOU HOUSE EXISTS

Family time should feel good for everyone.

As a mother, founder Alyona Shubina kept noticing the same gap.

Indoor playgrounds could be exciting for children, but noisy and exhausting for parents. Cafes could feel comfortable for adults, but were rarely designed around the needs of young families. Too often, spending time together still meant that someone had to compromise — or that a screen had to keep a child occupied.

Alyona believed family outings could feel different.

What if children could be completely engaged, parents could genuinely exhale, and everyone could enjoy the same place in their own way?

THE IDEA

One beautiful place, thoughtfully created for the whole family.

LOULOU HOUSE brings purposeful play, creativity, comfortable spaces for parents, thoughtful food, meaningful celebrations, and community together under one roof.

Children can move, imagine, build, create, and discover. Parents can enjoy coffee, catch up with a friend, work nearby, or simply slow down while staying connected to their child's experience.

Every part of the space is designed so that neither children nor parents feel like an afterthought.

Not simply a playroom. Not simply a cafe. A new kind of family place.

MEET THE FOUNDER

Alyona Shubina

Founder & CEO of LOULOU HOUSE

Alyona is an experienced event producer, business owner, and mother with a passion for creating joyful, meaningful experiences for families.

After years of producing children's workshops and events in Miami, she began imagining something more permanent: a vibrant family destination where beauty, creativity, play, wellness, and community could naturally come together.

The idea was also deeply personal. Alyona wanted to create the kind of place she wished existed for her own family — exciting enough for children, beautiful enough for parents, and welcoming enough to become part of everyday family life.

That vision became LOULOU HOUSE: a place where children can discover, parents can recharge, and families can create moments they will remember together.

I wanted to create a place where neither children nor parents had to compromise — where kids could play freely, parents could truly relax, and families could feel more connected when they left than when they arrived.
