I love that they always come up with new, creative activities. It is a much better option than at home with screen time, they get to meet new friends of all ages and play like kids should!
Convenient, and the director is thoughtful and organized
Very pleased with the Y care before and after care program. Caring staff, very good with feedback to the parents. Highly recommend!
The counselors are amazing and my kiddo really looks forward to going before school and on no-school days. He wants to get there extra early so he can get as much time in as possible.
Kind, helpful staff
Lots of support for my child.
Everything
I’ve had a really good experience. The only thing that would be more helpful, is pricing and being more understanding, when when hardships arise for the parent. When it comes to the fees, but I do like the staff and my daughter seems to be happy there
Great experience. No issues. Staff is great the kids
The staff are friendly and very communicative about the program and any issues the students have. They try to help and understand when behavior issues arise.
All of the people in the program are pleasant and really care for the children. Nahla was going to another facility and said she likes Y care much more than that one. Her friends go there so its a natural transition from after school. The extra activities are well planned and Nahla enjoys them a lot.
Teachers and staff are friendly and accommodating and our daughter has never complained about participating. We especially appreciate their dedication to eliminate bullying!
Staff is great
Reliable, kind, engaging with the kids
It's great my kid loves it and the staff is very personal and patient.
My son always has a blast! He loves all the field trips!
The McGee girls from Meadow Lane have enjoyed every camp they attended. Thank you to the staff for keeping them safe and having a good summer! See you next summer!!
Conveniently located in the same pre-K school where my child attended and perfect for after school program. The teachers are great and taught my child a lot- from making art to improving on her writing skills with lots of learned singing too!
I like how personable the instructors are and how they get to know my child. They know what my child likes to do and how he interacts best with others. I feel like my child is in safe hands and has a place to learn and grow.
My son he is very happy. with this summer school thank you very much for having him.
This is our 3rd year doing YMCA camp and we love it! The team does such a great job of curating events and activities for the kids. My son has made great friends at summer camp from other schools that he wouldn't have met during the regular school year.
As a parent, I really like the fact that there are male counselors. My son has expressed interest in being a YMCA counselor "when he grows up". :) The fact that he feels represented in a traditional female-dominated field is wonderful!
Thank you all for your dedication and support.

My child really enjoyed getting up and going to camp each morning. We loved the organized activities and field trips. The communication from staff was great! We always knew what was going on each day.
I love that my kiddo gets a different, fun experience every week during the summer while also making friends.
Kids have structure during the summer, plenty of activities to do and fun experiences
Both of our kids loved their camps this summer (Highlands and Ray Marsh)! The staff were all very friendly and they did a lot of fun activities and field trips over the summer.
good experience
My kiddo had a great time at camp this summer! Highly recommend!
Whitney did a great job and the kids enjoyed the year!
Keeps the kids active all summer. Extended hours are really convenient when juggling work hours too.
The day camp we first attended which was Highland Park was terrible!!! We moved to Unity Village Camp and it’s been amazing. Those teachers are kind, understanding, and compassionate. They greet families when they arrive and when they leave. Ms. Kim and Ms. Treva are so great, I can’t say enough kind things about them. Their staff is well trained and Ms. Kim expects the best from then and it shows because they are the best. We will definitely be attending Unity next year too. The program activities are much different than the others and promote creativity, exploration, and independence. My kids have really grown from this program. So happy to have been a part of this particular camp!!! We will definitely be back next year.

My children currently attend before and after-school Y-care at Overland Trail Elementary. Mr. Ryan and the staff are AWESOME with the kids. I feel my children are in good hands during their time in Ycare.
