    I have a neurodivergent 5 year old who thrives on structure and gets nervous around new things and…read moreloud noises. Needless to say, we weren't sure if he was going to be able to handle camp, let alone Steve & Kate's. Turns out he had a fantastic summer. It's easy to pinpoint the reason too: Janelle, the camp director, and her incredible staff. We really weren't expecting any accommodations, but/and Jenelle and all the counselors quickly realized what my son needed, put some changes in place for him, and connected with him in an amazing way. My son was so happy and he learned that he can fun with less structure, be safe with new people, and make new friends. I'm gushing, I know, but this summer was super-special and I couldn't let it go unnoted.

Thank God my child has a strong sense of self and knows how to verbally and physically defend herself. With that being said, this is not how I want her to spend her summer. Summer camp should be a place where a child relaxes, and not where she develops defensive techniques from verbal and physical attacks. Stay AWAY!!! To the parents of these bullies, DO BETTER. These types of behavior are learned and fostered at home. Update: I met with the Director and Associate Director of the program and they informed me that 2/3 kids that were involved in the incidences were expelled. The last child was 4 year olds and not fully aware of what he was doing. I was happy that the administration did not dismiss what was going on and acted swiftly.

Not only do they offer classes for pretty much every instrument under the sun, but they also have recording engineering classes, free picture day, rock band groups for the kids, and a whole array of other creative programming. They stay on top of everything and are extremely well organized. Their staff is friendly and accommodating, and their rescheduling program is totally fair. I've seen or heard about at least four parents go off on staff for the most ridiculous reasons, and their staff keeps their cool, straightens it out, and the parents leave. Very happy. Even difficult people find this location to be wonderful in the end. That's real customer service right there. I'm proud to say that. I am a huge fan of this Local community staple and I hope they are here for many many more years to come!!

Kyong has done a wonderful job attracting very well qualified instructors. The proof for us is measured in the development my kids have demonstrated each year. The facilities are all top notch including the rehearsal rooms, waiting areas and recital hall which features an impressive baby grand Steinway. What is also great about the school is the live telecast they provide during recitals. This allows for loved ones to view the recitals live from afar. I should also mention my kids thoroughly enjoy attending the school. The direction they are given is challenging but fun at the same time. And lastly, I appreciated Kyong's level of engagement. She is always seen interacting with the students, teachers and waiting parents. Johnny C

It was clean and not crowded like other indoor play places nearby. I thought it was well priced as well. I always thought that only children who have special needs could go because of the name, but it is for everyone. Inclusive and amazing setting. Can't wait to go back!

    I've been to this indoor play place several times for other parties and always loved it...until it…read morecame time for my daughter's birthday. I booked her party 5 months in advance and paid for two extra hours, specifically because I wanted the gym privately for the full 4 hours. Our party was scheduled from 1-5 PM. About one week before the party, I received a call saying that the last hour (4-5 PM) would now be open play, and that the pricing for the second additional hour had changed. While they said they wouldn't charge me the new price since I booked far in advance, I expressed how upset I was that this change was communicated so late. Had I known sooner, I would have adjusted the party time to avoid open play altogether. I was then told on the phone that there was no guarantee anyone would come in during that last hour, which turned out to be completely untrue. On the day of the party, we felt rushed to go into the party room and was told we couldn't enter the play area because another group/party was already using it, meaning our party was overlapped with another event. To add even more stress, I received a call the day before the party saying there might be an additional cleanup fee. This was surprising, especially since my friend has hosted two parties here before and was never charged a cleanup fee. What should have been a joyful, stress-free experience for my daughter's first birthday turned into unnecessary anxiety and frustration due to poor communication and last-minute changes. I'm really disappointed, especially given how much I previously loved this place. Unfortunately, I don't think I'd host another party here again.

Having lived in the neighborhood for a few years we were excited to explore the facility as a possible daycare option for our 5 month old. Even if it meant putting our names on the waitlist. Well, after submitting the online ELC interest form and calling a couple of times, with no response back, I decided to stroll down the block and inquire within. I didn't intend to tour right then but I was hoping to schedule a future tour, to be able to compare all my Essex county infant daycare picks & make an educated decision. I explained to Carol that I made many attempts to contact the Montclair YMCA Learning Center regarding their Infant program & never got a response. In my opinion, Carol was cold, and seemed uninterested in providing any information. She called Justine and informed her that I've not had anyone reach back out to me, then returned from the call to tell me that there's a wait list, that the wait is a year long and that unless it's close to the time for enrollment, I would not be allowed to tour. When I asked Carol about the weekly cost, she said she didn't know and didn't want to "bother" Justine and call again cause she's busy and has meetings. I think if I was a white woman Carol would have called her back immediately and would've been much more pleasant in her interaction with me. Whomever set up that process didn't think it through because now based on what Carol shared- I'd have to wait close to 1 year to view the facility, with zero clue as to how it looks or differentiates from other day care centers and with no concept of the cost. Why would I be interested in putting my name on a wait list when you've provided me zero info and you're saying that it'll take close to a year for you to share any info? Very poor experience here.
