Went to a 2 year old birthday party here at the beginning of the year. We loved it!…read more Fast forward, I decided to have my 2 year olds birthday party here too! It was such a great decision. I couldn't have been more happy!!! To book, I emailed the owner and placed a $125 deposit and then $125 was due upon arrival. This was for a 2 hour reservation. In my opinion, this is very reasonable, competitive with other venues, and WELL worth it :) Upon arrival, the owner was so pleasant! She showed us around and let us know that if we needed anything, to just ask. For example, extra plates, napkins, or serving tools. She explained the time would be sectioned in two categories. The first hour would be for the kids to play and be led in play. Then, the next hour, would be for food and opening presents. Everyone had such a good time watching their little ones play! She had so many things for the kids to do. *Beware, the outside is not the most presentable. However, upon walking in, it is very clean, well decorated, organized, and everything else good!! They offer other services, which I am definitely interested in. So, I'll have to follow them on social media, because I definitely want to go back :)

We've had such a great experience with the Bounce n Boogie class! From day one, the teachers were…read moreso kind and welcoming -- they made me feel completely comfortable leaving my son in their care, which, as a parent, means everything. The space is clean, bright, and super inviting, and it's clear that the staff really cares about creating a safe, fun environment for the kids. Not only did my son have so much fun every time, but he also learned a lot -- from following directions to social skills, movement, and coordination. It's the perfect mix of play and early learning. Watching him come home happy and full of energy (and ready for a nap!) is the best part. I can't recommend this class enough for anyone looking for a positive, engaging activity for their little one. We're so grateful for the Bounce n Boogie team!

Weekday visits are far better than weekends. I have a pre-K child, and our first weekend visit was…read moretough, crowded play areas, kids pushing and not sharing, and a noticeable lack of parent engagement. Weekdays attract a different mix of families, and the experience improves dramatically. The exhibits are engaging, and my kiddo could happily stay at the bubble station on repeat. There is food on site, bathrooms are clean, and the staff is genuinely kind. As a parent, it is refreshing to have interactive museums like this in town. Adults can enjoy the activities too, but this space is designed for kids of all ages. During peak weekend hours, letting children take the lead makes the experience better for everyone. Only took one star because I wish there was more staff interaction- for times with children are not always kind & parents who are not paying attention. It's not ok for a stranger to get involved, so it would be nice if staff monitored just a little more. Still wondering if this is a museum dig or community parenting issue. You be the judge. 9/10 recommend!

You cannot go wrong coming they have something for everyone and pretty much all ages!…read more Great outdoor spaces too and little park, outdoor water play during the warmer months and so many cool activities inside. The trains are a huge hit for my son. They have a dangerous but fun little gift shop at the front. Parents you know what I mean. They also have a café that has a great selection of kid friendly food choices, and caffeinated beverages for parents! But you do not have to have kids to enjoy all they have to offer it truly is fun for all ages!

I found the YMCA Early Childhood Development Center Daycare through a coworker. I needed interim…read morecare for my 19 month old toddler because we lost our other sitter to a day job, and we were still on a waiting list for a daycare/preschool closer to home. The Y had an opening, and we went. Well, I am really glad that we did. The carers are awesome, they all made a fuss over my son everyday, which was great. They have a little report card they give you at the end of the day so you have some idea how your kidlet ate, napped and generally did during the day. The staff are fun, friendly and have a really good sense of humor, which I really appreciate. They made sure all the kids were fed often, and were prompt to change diapers. My son never had any issues with rashes or other diaper stuff. Pros: The staff are great, very engaged with the kids, and my son was always relaxed and happy at the end of the day. They got to play a lot of games, there's a big space and not too many kids (15 total) for the number of caregivers (3 at any time). They have the same people there, so the kids have consistency in caregivers too, which I really like. They did different activities, painting, drawing, singing, and just playing. Cons: the only con was that the outdoor area isn't ideal. It's in an office building so the outdoor space is concrete. There are foam pads on the ground, so the kids won't get scrapes when they fall, and there's lots of toys, but it's still concrete. I think given the location, and the awesome staff, that isn't a terrble thing for me. Overall, I do recommend YMCS downtown daycare. They are really convenient, really nice and reasonably priced, too!
