There are usually adult classes where they'll teach/belay/spot you.
Staffmembers don't usually belay- they have to teach classes and other stuff, but it may be different at the gym you go to.
I know some places offer a private belay per hour, but it's very expensive.
...hey! Bouldering's fun! You just have to trust the mat and the person who's spotting you
Also, if the belayer weighs less than you, they're usually attached to a daisychain- it will take your weight, and it's bolted to the floor. The rope can hold one of those big severalton trucks (or so I was told when I started learning)
