This coworking space in Carlsbad got it right. You drop off your kids with incredible staff who do activities with them and keep them engaged while you work next door and have access to a conference room, work stations, a kitchen, coffee and tea, and a monitor where you can watch your kids as you work next door. They also offer drop off options on Friday where you can leave to run errands. The little touches like the little library outside make it welcoming and warm. These two moms and sisters have worked so hard to create a place for parents and kids to come and use for work and play. You can also use FSA funds and Calworks funds to pay for the childcare. Highly recommend!

I've been coming here since they opened and can say, now, with several months under my belt that the Cove is exactly what I’ve been looking for - a place where I can work while my toddler plays and learns safely nearby. I love the peace of mind of being close if he needs me, though after a brief transition period, he hasn’t needed me at all. The caretakers are wonderful and have created a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment. Love that this exists in Carlsbad!

My husband took my daughter (age 2.5) because we had a gap in childcare. The place was clean and welcoming. My daughter loved it and had a fun, full day! My husband was able to work productively too. Definitely recommend.

I absolutely love The Cove! As a work-from-home parent, having a safe, nurturing, and fun place for my little one has been a game changer. The staff is warm and attentive, and the camera access gives me so much peace of mind throughout the day. I also really appreciate the cute photo updates, my baby always looks like she’s having an absolute blast. They offer great and enriching activities, including arts and craft etc. The coworking space is also a huge perk: it’s bright, quiet, filled with natural light, and has extra monitors. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a flexible childcare option paired with a comfortable workspace!

The Cove is unlike any other coworking and childcare facility in Carlsbad. It’s easy for families to focus on work and have peace of mind that their children are right there being taken care of by the wonderful staff. Stephanie is so sweet and makes sure any questions or concerns are addressed right away! Welcome to the Carlsbad community!! 🫶🏼
While storage in coworking spaces is generally limited, and mostly reserved for members with dedicated desks or private offices, you should always check with the coworking operator about additional storage solutions. Fill out the form on the right side of the page to reach out to them and learn all about the available options.
5122 Avenida Encinas operates during regular business hours, which are listed above. For any requests or requirements outside of these hours, please contact the coworking operator directly.
Most coworking space amenities are open to all members, regardless of the membership plan. Meeting rooms require prior reservation, and private offices are exclusively available to those with subscription packages. However, the lounge, kitchen, and breakout spaces are open to everyone. Complimentary amenities are also available to all, while ancillary services can be purchased or negotiated individually with The Cove.
Open desks may be the ideal choice if you thrive in a collaborative environment and value the opportunity to connect with fellow coworkers. Dedicated desks, on the other hand, provide a designated space with shared community amenities, catering to those who seek a balance between privacy and interaction.
For ultimate focus and private interactions, private offices are best for solo individuals and teams that seek uninterrupted productivity.
Selecting the most suitable workspace for you typically hinges on your work style and preferences, but it can also be determined by the type of work that you do, its duration, and whether you work alone or in a team.
Flexibility is the cornerstone of coworking, so you always have the option to adjust your workspace to match your current needs. With month-to-month memberships, you can effortlessly upgrade, downgrade, or even switch between different coworking plans.
While the standard practice is to change memberships only once the current one ends, The Cove may be able to offer additional options, so it’s best to reach out to their staff directly.
