This is our first year doing after school care with YMCA at Caraway and I've been very pleasantly surprised. The staff is friendly and accountable. Specifically Bre as the new site lead is easy to speak with and addresses any questions or concerns I have.
The kids LOVE going to YMCA and often aren't wanting to leave when it's ready to go home at the end of the day.
I appreciate the different groups and care the staff takes to ensure the kids are compatible and make safe choices. The different activities and games are amazing and the kids love telling me about what they got to do today.
Great job Bre and team, please keep up the good work.
My daughter enjoys the activities and snacks. I like that it is a smaller ratio size compared to the other organization offered at her school. Thank you.
YMCA group leaders take interest in the kiddos. YMCA, takes appreciate steps to correct any issues reported. I have noticed the Carpenter Hill Group leaders take steps to ensure kiddos are having fun. They put in the effort to get to know the kids and follow safety protocols.
My son loves it- he has friends there and they always are super engaging with the kids. I feel like they always plan out the activities really well and are age, appropriate.
My son feels very cared for and loves all of the activities (especially the art activities). I also love that the program prioritizes going outside or playing in the gym to get all their wiggles out.
- The after-school program is located at the school for a seamless transition for my child
- Many choices of activities: my son can play outside or do a variety of activities inside, keeps him from being bored
- Opportunity to socialize outside grade level
- Snack is included!!!
- The hours are convenient, the price is right
- Most importantly: my son loves it! Sometimes he asks me to pick him up later so he can have more time at the after school program
