Member Testimonials
I
Very invested staff. A good variety of activities.
Great counselors, positive activities, lots of crafts
Very convenient with it being at my son’s school.
The staff is extremely friendly and caring with the children. Also, they’ve informed me of everything that goes on even if it’s a little scrape on the knee to my daughter seeming a little bit more tired than usual. Highly recommend it.
The team at Edgemont after school are amazing…
Mr Isaiah is extraordinary as Edgemont aftercare site director. My son is enjoying the program so much more this year. No matter what time I arrive, the counselors are engaged in activities with the children vs talking to each other or on their phones, which was typically the case last year. I'm always greeted courteously. I'm immediately told if there's an issue with my son's behavior.
Sofia is amazing, she’s the pillar of the experience there! All the others are also really nice and professional!
Reliable and at the kids school for working parents.
Ms.Beverly is the absolute best! Joelle also. The YMCA as a whole continues to be a place where parents can feel at ease when their kids are at aftercare, camp, and participating in sports. Thank you for all that you do!
All the staff are so caring and wonderful!!
My kids love it! Many games and sport activities
I like that my daughter is learning new things that she may not learn in class by doing fun experiments. I also like that Zumba classes are offered, and that the kids seem to get plenty of free play with developmental toys.
My child loves aftercare! He enjoys the friends, the activities, staying active via games (even when it’s cold), etc. He often complains that we pick him up too early even when he is the last kid there. He clearly feels safe, happy, and engaged and that’s exactly what we needed…thank you!
Bus and swimming
Ms. Sofia at DLC and Mr. Zay at Edgemont are both wonderful! The team of counselors are great at both schools and we are very happy with the experience.
We love that kids do homework. And we love that it’s supervised free play.
Miss Grace and Miss Emma are great! There was an issue with my son's after school enrichment and he wasn't where he was supposed to be before going to aftercare. Thankfully Miss. Grace was extremely attentive and paid close attention when she saw that he wasn't with his enrichment class as expected (even though it wasn't her responsibility at the time). She made sure he was safe and had him join the rest of the aftercare group. My son seems to have a great time and I know that he's in great hands.
The staff is great and my son has a blast!
I love the providers that are part of the program. We have had wonderful experiences so far with Fabienne, Sofia and Kim and want to give a shout out to the hiring of these 3 individuals. Our son is constantly talking about his time after school and we know that the staff plays a big part in that. We also appreciate the updates from staff when we pick up our son because it better helps us understand how his day went or if there were any concerns that we should monitor. We are grateful for the top notch care!
We are very happy that you participated in the program. My daughter is having a productive time. She does his homework and has fun. Thanks a lot
Safe, reliable and fun. Great place for my child to be during work and school without me worrying.
My daughter loves her aftercare teachers at Hillside! They are kind and pay good attention to the students needs.
The YMCA Child Care program has been great for our working family. It gives us parents a safe place for our child. It gives our child a fun and social environment to play after school. The team have been great. They are supportive with our child's homework and are playful and fun.
Miss Yasmin at Forest Ave in Verona is amazing. She does such a great job! She keeps everything running smoothly and really cares about the kids.
Love the staff!
Great, energetic instructors who really connect with the kids! Also the reliability of the care is huge.
