Member Testimonials
The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable about each child. The sign out process was always smooth and efficient.
My son gets to play with his friends, and there are opportunities for structured activities.
The staff at my daughter’s aftercare was amazing. She more often then not ask to stay longer!
People are friendly. The pool is excellent. Hours are great. Men's locker room is a bit tight, though.
The staff
Reliable, I can rely on the Y more than a sitter. The flexibility to change days when my schedule needs to. Friendly staff.
We came from another nearby YMCA that's closer to us. We tried Montclair for a couple of months and made the permanent change to make Montclair YMCA our YMCA we love that there are 2 pools, the vibe is very chill, the staff is very helpful, the facilities are nice. It's an A+++ across the board

The staff! They are so caring and work so hard to make the experience great for the kids. Shout out to the after care staff at Hillside Elementary.
My daughter feels safe and happy there. She loves her counselors and playing with her friends.
excellent 👏🏻👏🏻 recommended 100%
My child attends morning and aftercare about 3 days a week at Watchung school. The staff members do a great job keeping the kids active and safe. I particularly appreciate their daily greetings and warm and caring demeanor with the kids and towards their colleagues. You know things are going well when your child asks to stay and play a little longer at pick up. Thank you, Y, for providing this important service to families!
The staff is great and it's just an easy gym to be at. Has everything I need.
Nice equipment, not too crowded, nice staff and members
I like very much

Consistent high level of care. Staff is attentive and finds creative ways to keep the children engaged. My son always enjoyed his time in SACC.
I like the classes and the instructors are great!
Love this place!
The YMCA is a wonderful place to work out and get involved in the community. It is diverse and welcoming to all.
Great experience
Our 2 daughters have had lessons w/ Justin & Vanese over the last 2 years. They were both wonderful and we've had an amazing experience. Vanese in particular has made a tremendous impact on their progress and they love working with her -- they look forward to Friday night swimming!
Thanks for doing a great job hiring fun, professional, talented swim instructors -- we appreciate it.
Mr Zay and team are FABULOUS! My kid loved every second with them at Edgemont school.
Good facilities - women's locker room was bright, large and renovated. Family changing room was dark. Great pool, good hours.
My instructor, Lynn was fantastic. My goals were to learn how to breathe by blowing bubbles, tread water(afraid of deep water), swim laps and float on my back.
Goals met and more.
