Gymnastics and the gym

Coach Darren is so wonderful and patient with the kids and my son has learned so much and LOVES going to his "sports class" every week. We will definitely sign up for another session if it's offered again

Organized well, time used effectively, Coach Darren is awesome with the kids!

Great room. Great interaction with the little ones

Very pleased with April the new Director I think she is going to be an excellent fit

The teachers in the early learning center are all fabulous. They are all creative and have amazing caring personalities

I like that the group of kids is a small group. Their more apt to get some one on one to help achieve their goals.

Ken has been great. Communication is great.

Clean, spacious, great group supporting you.

Have been a member many years and love the diversity of classes. And Wendy is absolutely amazing and my favorite instructor.

The activity is fantastic! I truly appreciate the instructors; they are incredibly friendly and patient. The facility seems clean and safe, but there is one minor concern: the Gymnastics room feels a bit stuffy and could benefit from better air circulation.

A variety of formal programs are available to fit most needs and schedules. Ample equipment is available for individual workouts. The staff is courteous, helpful and professional.

Nice facility. Friendly staff.

Great equipment!

My grandson loves basketball and the program for basketball for youth has helped my grandson to develop more strength, coordination, basketball skills and he feels part of the team. He has autism and would never miss his basketball on Fridays.

I have always liked the YMCA childcare program for it's affordability and the fact that they offer financial aid. I am also ELATED with the changes in leadership within the Plaistow YMCA's childcare program over the past month or so! With the staffing changes in place post-summer I would HIGHLY recommend the Plaistow YMCA for childcare!

Friendly and organized instructor (Lindsey), developmentally appropriate activities, and access to equipment :)

The room is great. Lots of opportunity to grow. My child is only three and he had a great time and was not only learning new gym skills but also listening skills.

I like that the classes are small, so there is more one on one wotht he kods

Coach Darren is a perfect fit for the kids in preschool sports. He models taking sports seriously while also infusing some fun. We are so impressed!

The teachers are more like family. My son is super shy when it comes to new people and he absolutely loves every teacher he’s met. He loves all the activities.

All the staff are very welcoming. My son is very happy attending school here and he always comes home really excited. He has delayed speech but from his actions we can tell that he is really having fun at school. He also has started to pretend play which is something he didn’t do before. The staff were very helpful listening to his needs and have helped us navigate through the process of starting at a school he will get more therapy. Ms Laura of the Toddler class is God sent. She listens to our worries and share’s helpful resources with us. She keeps the kids engaged through educational activities and to crown it all she shares pictures of how kids do everyday with parents. It is so wonderful the experience we have at this childcare center and we are so grateful to have our son be a part of this wonderful community. We can’t wait for our other son to start attending this program. I recommend this ymca 1000times.

I absolutely love the classes! Wendy is amazing!! Plus there’s always some kind of activities going on for the little ones. ❤️
