As both a parent and an employee at the YMCA Early Learning Center, I have the privilege of seeing firsthand the love, dedication, and care that go into creating a positive learning environment for our children.

Before attending the center, my daughter Alora was home with me while I was a stay-at-home mom, so this was her very first experience in a classroom setting. Naturally, I was nervous about how she would adjust, but she transitioned so quickly! I want to recognize Ms. Lilly and Ms. Alika, who welcomed her during her first eight days and truly set the tone for such a positive experience.

Alora is now in the Toddler 1 classroom with Mr. Sam and Ms. Lorainy, and I couldn’t be more grateful for them! They do an incredible job nurturing her development, encouraging independence, and teaching essential skills during these important early years.

What makes me happiest is seeing how much of what she learns carries over into our home. She is constantly singing songs from school, practicing new skills, and mentioning her classmates throughout the day. It’s so rewarding to see her growing in confidence, independence, and social skills while genuinely enjoying her learning experience.

As an early childhood educator myself, I understand the patience, creativity, and intentionality it takes to guide young children. I deeply appreciate the effort these educators put into creating meaningful, engaging, and developmentally appropriate experiences.

Knowing my daughter is surrounded by people who genuinely care about her happiness, growth, and well-being gives me so much peace of mind. I’m incredibly thankful that her first experience in early childhood education has been such a positive one. Thank you to all four educators for making this transition so special for Alora and our family!

Everything!

My son loves Ms. Kaely and Ms. Corsia! He is learning so much. He loves going to school!

because there are many programs to take advantage of

Lots of classes, especially those targeted for seniors. I like that they’ve added mahjong, meditation, stretching and also relaxation classes too. However, I would like to see more 30 minute classes, as many of us don’t always have time for hour long classes.

Great opportunities in programming and rec time. Kind people. Clean.

It’s the best.

Schedules have alot of options for classes and swimming lanes in the pool.

Clean! Well laid out and full of opportunities for developing oneself.
