What do you like about your Lakewood-Trumbull YMCA Aquatics experience?

We have had a great experience there. We love it. The instructors have been amazing with my child who has special needs. They have been patient and taking things slow with the group he is in. We are so grateful for the sponsorship and the y.

What could we do to improve?

The camp that I registered my son was for younger kids and very crowded. He didn’t like it. I asked my money back but I was ignored.

What could we do to improve?

It would be great to have consistent instructors on the days of the lessons. In the first ksession we saw three different instructors. My child is 4 and has a hard time adjusting/listening to new people. Sometimes it takes almost half of the lesson just to get him to go with the instructor.

It would also be great to have instructors who work well with ADHD/more strong willed kids. Someone who can keep them on track with the lessons rather than letting the child “take control” of the lessons

What could we do to improve?

Communication has been impossible. My son cannot attend for 4 weeks due to an unforeseen school requirement. I've already paid for the first two weeks. I was told I would not get billed for another week but was anyway. My sons are enrolled in aftercare and they tell me all they do is sit around for 2 hours. On rainy days, they stay in the pavilion all day and the only game they have to play is Uno.

What do you like about your Lakewood-Trumbull YMCA Camp experience?

The counselors are amazing, attentive, kind, fun. They take amazing care of all of the kids. I have a 3 year old and 7 year old and I was slightly nervous about sending the 3 yr old but she had the best time and everyone was so amazing with her. They have great activities, the kids are never bored. I can’t rave about it enough. It’s the highlight of the girls summer. Maybe even the year.

What do you like about your Soundview Famly YMCA Membership experience?

I began my YMCA membership in the Livestrong Program back in March 2026. Christina and Jess, our instructors, are AMAZING!! They are caring and gentle, reassuring and knowledgeable. Friendly too. This program is for all cancer patients.
When the 12 week program was done I continued to see Christina and Jess in other instructor led classes! I've also branched out and met many other instructors. I continue at my own pace and never ever feel judged as my brain and body gain strength and I gain confidence. Quite the opposite, I've found the patrons in class with me are encouraging and helpful! I just ask for help, everyone makes it easy to do so. I love the YMCA. Cudos to all the staff for fostering this environment!! Thank you!

The counselors are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They learned the kids' names within the first two days, and my daughter loves being greeting by name as soon as we pull up. She has done a variety of activities and made friends. We are very pleased with the camp so far.
