Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

Great facilities and friendly staff.
My sole gripe is the misuse of the squash courts to the point where they become hazardous for advanced users and visiting league guests. Daycare leaves stickers and other debris on court, and folks who use marking sneakers not only mark up the court, but the “wrong sneaker” residue left in court is much slicker than the hardwood beneath and I have suffered medium to severe ankle sprains due to this. I am very nervous continued disuse of the courts will eventually result in a more severe injury necessitating surgery. Obviously none of this is malicious behavior but I would like to see increased enforcement/education on the matter. I am aware there is signage indicating as such

The pool was great! The women locker rooms were clean and it was easy to park there. Also had never realized how close it is, to me.

What do you like about our program and activities?

The childcare center is wonderful. Everyone on the staff knows my child's name and is friendly and welcoming. The children are always participating in fun events, such as the art fair, gingerbread house decorating, pizza Friday or halloween parades. I feel like the teachers genuinely care about my son’s growth and well being. He is always sharing how much fun he had in class, whether he is reading, dancing, playing, or crafting. My son spends all weekend talking about what he is going to share with Ms. Hassania and Ms. Julie on Monday, a testament to how loved and cared for he feels with them. The classroom is always clean and has a new theme so often, which my son loves to show off at pick up. My son’s progress is shared daily and we love getting the pictures on the app throughout the week. The storyboards are great at sharing the lesson objectives behind everything they do in class. Communication is great at the center, any questions/emails are answered quickly.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

I just changed from an expensive yoga studio to classes at the Y. The Y instructors & classes are excellent. The additional activities provide well rounded options for ongoing physical health care. As a new member, the staff has been quick to answer questions & make recomendations. Very satisfied. .

What do you like about our program and activities?

I can’t say enough good things about this childcare! My three year old absolutely loves it here every day is filled with fun, learning, and engaging activities that keep them excited to come back. The teachers are so warm and nurturing, and I can see how much they truly care about each child.

What really sets this place apart is how well they accommodate my 10 year old, too. It’s not always easy to find a childcare setting that works for different age groups, but they make it seamless. My older child enjoys the creative projects, outdoor play, and the chance to socialize with peers, all while being in a safe and supportive environment.

Knowing that both of my kids are happy, well cared for, and thriving makes such a difference. I highly recommend this childcare to any parent looking for a place where their little ones will be loved, encouraged, and engaged every day!
