Member Testimonials
My daughter just started Kindergarten at Holton and she loves the aftercare program. It's one of the highlights of her day. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Also the child care they provide on the days off are an added bonus. The staff at the YMCA has made the transition from daycare to school a lot easier.
My son has a blast. He loves playing outside the most, closely followed by Legos and games in the gym. Staff is wonderful and they a great at what they do.
The staff is very engaged and supportive of families. I also like the staff stability where we have had some of the same faces for many years. The affordability is also very appealing.
My daughter is so happy. The staff are amazing and kind and caring!
counselors are wonderful, and YMCA provides quality, fun, caring environment and activities; the program is run beautifully!
We did not get a lot of information about the programs or activities, either from the Y or from our son. However, the staff are wonderful, caring, and present, and that seems to be the most important thing.
Great program, great staff, and lots of fun for the kids. We're so lucky to have the Y at Holton!
We love the staff! We love that they care a lot for our kids and go above and beyond to bring engaging activities to them. They also always seem like they are having FUN with our kids which is great.
I love that the aftercare is right at my son's school and the staff are so caring and helpful. They provide a safe space to get help with homework and the ability to get more more outdoor play and other recreation and open unrestricted play time than the the short recess during the school day.
I absolutely love the YMCA aftercare program for my child! It provides a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment, and I can see how much my child enjoys the activities and care they receive there. It’s been such a positive experience, and I’m so grateful for the wonderful staff and the care they provide!
Great staff, you can tell they like children and want to be there. They are engaged and keep an eye on our kiddos!

The teachers and staff care so much about the kids and are such an important part of their development
A safe, caring environment for my child to spend time after school with friends and the opportunity for creative and active play and even have access to homework help if needed before I pick him up after school.
We love Ms T! She is so kind and caring. Also very patient with us parents.
Ms. Turner was an amazing teacher, and she will be missed. The team at Holton are so fun and loving.

The staff is the best! I feel like they really take the time to get know my entire family. My kids also enjoy the social aspect of the program.

Great programs, great staff, and the best part of my son's school day (according to him)!
Taquira Murrell and her team on site at Holton are amazing!! They are so thoughtful, caring and warm to all our kids, and are always looking for ways to engage them in meaningful ways. They are consummate professionals, organized, and communicative. Thank you for all you do, Ms. T!
The YMCA teachers are amazing! Everyone on staff is full of energy and shows genuine care and pride in all that they do. It's clear they love our kids and want them to grow and succeed. The activities they plan for the kids are creative and cultivate curiosity. My child always comes home happy and excited about what she did at the Y that day. Kudos to management for building such a strong team and for keeping the parents informed and organized.
Your employees at Holton After-Care are wonderful. They work hard to keep the kids engaged and get to know them. They are all so kind and thoughtful. We have LOVED having Dunton there and he enjoys it so much he has a hard time leaving.
Ms. T is a wonderful human and I feel really confident that my child is being taken care of. Thank you.
The staff engage with love and provide a fulfilling after school experience.
My daughter loves the after care program. And the director and other employees are kind, warm, and take amazing care of the kids while still having fun. I feel safe with my child in their care and it helps to have the Y available for care when school is closed.
Ms. T and the team are the best.
Incredible staff who are such positive and loving forces for the kids.
Very kind staff, reasonable prices, always available.

It’s a great time for loosely structured social interactions with kids not in their classroom, helps maintain relationships with friends they aren’t in a classroom with anymore and helps build bridges and friends they might see in next year’s classroom.
