Great atmosphere & I love how everyone ate hands on with the children

Kid friendly and safe

I Enjoyed the staff and program at Rising Stars Vine. The only complaints I have are in regard to "rules and regulations". But hey, nothing can be done about that. I would send my child back to the program if offered again.

Everything was great

I love the daycare. They truly have the biggest hearts and took care of my kids while I was at work.

I really liked the after school program. It made a difference in my kids learning in school. I hope they will be able to be in the program, in fall of 2019.

I love the staff, everyone is so friendly. The location is perfect for me also.

My son feels cared about and has fun with Gus little buddies. I love that he gets to spend so much time outside.

It’s well structured and you guys help the children with listening skills and being independent

That they are located in my child’s school

It’s at the school, it has a curriculum, the kids genuinely enjoy themselves and the staff is great.

They help my children with academic skills

I love the hours and friendly staff.

It is a convenient, safe, and fun environment for kids to attend while their parents/guardians are at work, school or tending to other business. It best meets the needs for families as a whole for widespread communities in the city!

I like the workers and my daughter enjoys it.

Great with my children really caring and helpful

My children always get the help they need academically after school and they really enjoy the newly instituted trips to the YMCA on Friday’s for activities like swimming and basketball. Over all an awesome program.

The support it gives the children

First, I'd like to say the YMCA staff are so wonderful to the kids. This alone is most important.

My daughter loves going to after-school care. She gets physical exercise by playing outside or in the gym.

She enjoys the games and coloring that the kids sometimes do.

The nutritional program was great! I liked the idea that my daughter and the other kids were discussing good choices for snacks and food.

My daughter attends the Girls Club - this is one of her favorites.

The staff is amazing. My child feels comfortable and I feel comfortable knowing that. They make sure he gets his homework done, plus activities. My son had been there for 3 years now. We love it! Although I pay a lot (well to me it’s a lot) it’s worth it.

They make sure my daughter's experience is safe and fun filled.The staff is personable and authentic.I love diverse experience..#Princetyns mom

I like the staff

They offer a variety of activities and special themes & shows. The staff is friendly.

Playtime YMCA is an amazing safe space for kids. The staff is warm and friendly, and my daughter loves them. It was here that she blossomed to the smart, kind-hearted, outgoing, and confident child she is now.

Their availability and the fact that they are at the school and my child doesn't have to be transported again.

Safe environment

Staff and diversity within the program

I love how the teachers, and other staff make you feel like family at my sons daycare. I love the fact they make it convenient for parents as far as transportation to and from school, and the activities they have for the kids during the summer program are exceptional. All around The Y is the best by far.

Routine, structure. Balance learning with play. Lots of outside time and walks.

We like that there are activities for the children and that it is organized. The children are well supervisor and they are not running wild.
