Yaya’s House

28/07/2026

✨ FINAL OPEN SALE ✨

Tomorrow, Wednesday 29th July, will be our final open sale, taking place from 10:00am–12:00pm.

This will be your last opportunity to browse and purchase our second-hand toys and smaller items before we finish clearing Yaya’s House.

If you’re unable to make it tomorrow but there’s something you’re hoping to purchase, please do get in touch and we’ll do our best to help.

After tomorrow, we’ll only be posting any larger remaining items for sale, so this really is the final chance to pick up any of our pre-loved toys.

Just a little update on what’s left:
✨ Almost all of our kitchen equipment has now been sold.
🌿 The majority of our outdoor toys have also found new homes.
🛝 We do still have our two climbing frames available for anyone who may be interested.

If there’s a particular item you’ve been looking for, please send us a message and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.

Thank you once again for all of your incredible support over the past few weeks. Watching so many of Yaya’s House’s toys and resources head off to new homes where they’ll continue to be loved has meant the world to us. 💛

✨ WE GO AGAIN TOMORROW! ✨

We’ll be back tomorrow, Saturday 25th July, from 10:30am–12:30pm for another toy sale.

Honestly, we have been absolutely astounded every single day by the number of people who have come along to support these little sales. Every purchase, every kind word and every message has meant so much to us. Thank you. ❤️

Tomorrow morning, as soon as I arrive, I’ll do a video walkthrough of everything that’s still available, so please keep an eye on our Stories before you head over. I do apologise for not managing to do one this evening—it was a very long day, and I needed to get my little ones home.

As well as toys, we also have a selection of furniture available, including:
🪑 Tables and chairs
🛋️ Sofas
🌿 Outdoor furniture
📦 Storage units

If you’re interested in any of these, please let a member of the team know while you’re visiting, and we’ll be happy to show you what’s available.

Lastly, thank you for all of your lovely messages and comments. I’m trying my very best to keep up with everyone, but there are so many now that I’m struggling to reply to them all. Please know that I have seen them, I appreciate every single one, and I’m so grateful for all of your support during this final chapter of Yaya’s House.

We’ll see you tomorrow from 10:30am–12:30pm. 💛

✨ TOY SALE – TODAY | 1PM–3PM ✨

We’re back again today from 1pm–3pm with another toy sale!

Alongside the remaining brand new toys, we’ve also spent time preparing a huge selection of our pre-loved toys, role-play resources and equipment, all ready to find new homes. There are some fantastic bargains available!

Most items will be for sale in the top building, but if you’re looking for something specific that you can’t find, please just ask a member of the team. We have lots to sort through, so we may be able to help.

If you’ve arranged to visit in advance (particularly local preschools and nurseries), please do give us a call if you need to arrive earlier and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.

If you’re collecting items that have already been paid for or reserved, we’d really appreciate it if you could let us know roughly what time you’ll be arriving so that one of the team can be there to welcome you.

We know a few people have asked whether we can hold sales outside of normal working hours. Depending on how today goes, we may also open again tomorrow (Saturday), and we’ll keep you updated as soon as we know.

Finally, thank you. ❤️ Supporting these sales is helping us through the final chapter of Yaya’s House, and we truly appreciate every single purchase, kind word and visit. Your support means more than you know.

We look forward to seeing you this afternoon! 💛

✨ TOY SALE - ROUND TWO ✨

A huge thank you to everyone for bearing with us during this very busy and emotional time. Your patience, kindness and support mean more than you know. ❤️

Our second toy sale will be taking place today from 1pm–3pm, and we can’t wait to welcome you all back.

We’ll also have a selection of hot and cold drinks available in the café, so feel free to grab a drink while you’re here. ☕🧃

As we work our way through the remaining stock, we’re hoping to open up more of the main area for people to browse and see what else is available for sale. There are still lots of bits and pieces to go through, so keep an eye out for new items being added throughout the afternoon.

As always, everything will be available on a first come, first served basis.

Thank you again for all of your support, and we look forward to seeing you later today. 💛

21/07/2026

Our toys are now available to purchase.

You can find them in the upstairs section of our building. Simply come through the main front door and turn left.

We will also be open tomorrow (times to be confirmed), as well as Thursday and possibly Friday, depending on what stock remains.

To keep things fair and manageable, sales will be on a first come, first served basis.

If there is no one in the sales area when you arrive, please pop down to the café and a member of the team will come up to assist you.

Today, the sale area will be open from 1:30pm to 3:00pm, and tomorrow it will be open during the morning (exact times to be confirmed).

Thank you all for your support. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

With the heaviest heart, I’m sharing that Yaya’s House will be closing its doors to the general public on 21st July 2026.

I honestly never imagined I would be writing these words. Yaya’s House has been my dream, my first “baby”, and a huge part of my life for so many years. The thought of saying goodbye is something I’m still struggling to come to terms with.

I am completely heartbroken. Not because we are closing a business, but because we are saying goodbye to a community that has meant more to me than I could ever put into words. Watching your children grow, celebrating milestones with you, sharing in so many special moments, and welcoming you through our doors week after week has been the greatest privilege.

Over these final few weeks, I would love to see as many of you as possible. Come and make one last memory, let the little ones play, grab a coffee, and help us fill Yaya’s House with the laughter, joy and love that made it so special.

Thank you for supporting this dream, for believing in us, and for making Yaya’s House what it became. I will be forever grateful.

Please read through the carousel to understand more about this difficult decision.

With all my love,

Yazmin ❤️

We are absolutely blown away by the response and would like to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who has booked a session, shared our posts, and sent us such kind words of support. Whether you’re visiting us for the very first time or you’re one of our wonderful regulars, we truly appreciate every single one of you. ❤️

As a small independent business, every session and every visitor makes a difference, and your support means the world to us.

Thank you again for helping make this week such a success. We can’t wait to welcome you all for a week of imaginative role-play fun at Yaya’s House! 🏡✨
