I love the extra Durr program and the staff that work with our kids! The one suggestion I have would be to offer a way to drop kids at the drop off point and still have them be able to attend the daycare. If we get there before the drop off line opens (for the buses and non-daycare students) it makes sense to drop them in the back where we typically do. If we get there at say 745 the line has already started and you either get stuck in the parking area for daycare because the line blocks it off or you can’t get to that parking area and have to park at the other end of the the lot and walk back. This may make more sense if explained by one of the staff working there..lol. They can give you a visual layout if you’re unfamiliar. If we get there after the line has started then we typically just drop them in the student drop off zone but then they can’t attend daycare as we have to sign them in. Regardless of this you guys are a ten all the way and we and the kids love you! This option would just be very convenient if possible.
I love the extra programs offered like sw and gymnastics.
The activities are very educational and things that we can reproduce at home. My daughter loves the programs and I love to see her excited about them
My kids love the preschool and afternoon care. They learn so much!
Good environment for learning
I love everything that is available for the entire family. I love all of the extras that the Y offers. The Y is also very comfortable to just come and sit and read or have coffee and relax.
I love how convenient it is. My kids are always talking about how much fun they have with all the different clubs they have. Everytime i pick my kids up there are always kids laugging and having a good time doing some type of activity.
always friendly and helpful and accomodating to students, lots of educational stuff for them to do
Great with the kids. My kids enjoy coming each day.
My kids love the people that work with them. They love the activities that they do
We attend programs thru the Erlanger Elsmere School District. Specifically Lindeman but have attend camp this past summer and SDO programs. My son loves this program and the staff. I love the integrating of all schools although probably stressful at times, it helps the children learn how to meet new kids outside of the everyday school day. The staff interaction with the children is amazing, they are patient respectful, and understanding with all the children which takes great talent. Ms. Ellie, Mr.Dale, Ms. Sarah and the rest the staff..You all play a huge part in our childrens lifes. Thank you for all you do!!!! It is much appreciated. Keep up the amazing job!!
The extended K YMCA STAFF at Thornwilde is amazing.
LOVE the yoga classes, especially family yoga. My 4 yr old looks forward to it every week and teaches her dad afterward! I love sharing that with her because I love yoga!
I like that they help with homework & do crafts for their time left if they signed up for it
We have loved YMCA at AM Yealey. I would highly recommend the program to anyone looking for full time. I wish there was a morning school payment option as we only use the program from 840-12, but we love it.
The program helped to bring son out of his shy spell. He really enjoys the time with his friends, the help his teacher's provide with homework. It's really made him more open. Happier at the end of a school day. I'm so grateful he has been able to be involved in such a great program! A great opportunity to open up and be himself. The teachers and helpers are all wonderful 😁
I like how they treat the kids and how stable they are with opening up on time.
Great job!
Love my daughter’s teacher and that she genuinely cares about her & how safe it is-requires code, etc to get to child care area.
Logan is fantastic!
When I drop my baby off in the am I know she’s in good hands and when I get her in the afternoon she is always in high spirits
Great flexibility
Availability and flexibility. Care providers aren’t always kind and attentive.
Kindergarten after school care
Kids love the interaction
My child loves it
I have been very impressed with this program so far this year. And, as a teacher in the same building, I see the teachers/classes everyday. The teachers are professional and organized. They are also friendly. My child loves going to the half day kindergarten program.
My son enjoys his time in the program and is getting extra time on the content that I feel is important for him to have in Kindergarten. The teachers are AMAZING and are great at communicating with me.
The childcare programs are very convenient with all the different types to fit everyone’s needs & affordable & all the ladies & teachers are wonderful!
The coaches are fantastic. I have my child in gymnastics but I often watch the basketball coaching too and can’t wait for my little to be able to do that too. The love of the sport is taught and that is truly amazing. Keep up the great work, ladies and gents! The smiles on the kiddo’s faces is what truly lets you know they do a fantastic job!
