From water activities, arts and crafts, play rehearsals, pizza Friday and scheduled trips to cool places! Rosemarie worked with me and made my family feel welcome as new campers. They worked with my daughter who has ADHD and allowed her to have fun in a safe environment and made luge long friends. One daughter was in the theatre and dance program where she shined at the end of the year performance. Overall, BRAVO! To this camp, and I highly recommend it for all families!

We love Kiddie Korner. Our eldest started there aged 15 months and our youngest aged 7.5 months -…read moreand both continue to be very happy there (eldest is now 4 years old). Here's what we like: - Welcoming/warm atmosphere: the staff all seem to genuinely care about every child and support their individual needs. - Curriculum: with babies/young toddlers, we initially just wanted a safe and loving environment for them while we were at work. But we've also enjoyed seeing them learn and grow in every way. New concepts, numbers, the alphabet, etc - and of course, lots of songs - they cover it all. - Activities: art, yoga, "science lab", and Music Together - these have been great for our littles ones. - It's also nice to feel a part of the community, even though we're not Jewish. Many of the families are from different cultures/backgrounds. And it's kind of fun to hear your child pick up bits of Hebrew. The only real drawback is that October can be challenging with so many Jewish holidays (not all of them observed by other NYC schools). But we still love sending our baby and our preschooler to KK.

We were visiting family in NYC this summer with a 2- and 4-year-old, and quickly realized two…read morethings: apartments here are not big enough when you have to entertain 2 energetic toddlers, and AC is life. Honestly, my little ones started testing my sanity by our 3rd day on the trip, but then my SIL recommended I take the kids to PlayWell that morning...and they loved it. We dropped in for two hours and the time flew by. Both kids were so happy, got to burn off their energy, and I didn't even get the "I'm bored" complaint! The highlights: 1. The Ultimate Heat Escape: It's spacious, bright, super clean, and beautifully air-conditioned. A total oasis when it's melting outside. 2. Caters to different interests: The variety of activities is top-notch. They have high-energy set-ups like swings and a zip line, brain-boosting pegboards and puzzles, and pretend play activities like a kitchen and wooden train sets. 3. Smart layout: The space is designed with different zones, so kids can actually get a little separation and quiet space if they prefer, especially nice for the younger kids. 4. Perfect for all paces: It easily handles everyone from crawlers to high-energy kids who like to run or bounce around. We've been to a lot of play spaces, and this one has been one of our favorites. A must-visit!

It's a cost-efficient gym and that's the only reason it's not a 1/2 star. But the pool has many…read moreissues, there are 3 lanes, fast lane, middle lane and slow lane when it comes to swimming but the rules don't get enforced, you constantly have little kids and old people in the fast lane just hogging it swimming like they're on vacation. This makes getting an intensive workout in difficult when it comes to the pool, they need to enforce the rules. If people constantly have to pass you in a lane, you don't belong in a fast lane. Second issue is the gymnasium, you barely have time to play your favorite sport. They will dedicate hours of time to useless sports like tennis, soccer, pickleball? It's very inconvenient and not worth it. One thing I did like is the Sauna, the Sauna I had no problems with, it was never full and it does its job.

Pretty cool place it has Tennis playing for kids and adults , Basketball , soccer ,Volleyball and…read moreLacrosse, etc sports , And there a Fitness gym with two television set on News12 Brooklyn .An there a big indoor swimming pool which leads from 3 feet and the other side leads 12 feet . I usually love to go to Coney Island beach during the summer months but unfortunately when the winter months are here i cant go to the beach because its cold , so i come here to the indoor pool during the cold winter months . Thanks to Christina K. for signing up my membership . every time I'm off from work i come here to relax in the gym or the pool , just get away from my problems to relax my mind .in the indoor pool area there a life guard on premises and there place upstairs for parents or guest to watch and sit down when there swimming lessons in sessions !!!! P.S. There have lot of Kids activities , like summer camp and after school camp . There affiliated with the YMCA. i was doing some research i never knew YMCA started in London, U.K. (lol I'm reading this comment on someone review about the y , name : Mike H. , he mentions he rather leave his kids with Michael Jackson instead of this place or let his kids play on the highway , lol . Brooklynites mouth have no filter lol smfh , perfect example judge Judy she don't sugar code sh*t lol she a true brooklynite ) Very Convenient by the mta transportation: Bus: B44,B36,B3 Subway: (If you take the b44 bus to Northern Williamsburg direction you can transfer catch the 2,5-Trains at the Flatbush Avenue ,Train station to Manhattan and The Bronx ! , Or the B3 bus to Avenue U , Train station. Q-Train line . personally i believe the B44 bus is much faster than the B3 bus to transfer to the subway !!!!).

The staff is incredibly…read moreprofessional, caring, and organized, and they create such a fun and welcoming environment for the kids. My son absolutely loves the daily outdoor activities, as well as the indoor games and educational lessons. One of the highlights has been the group chess classes--he learned how to play after just his second lesson, which really impressed us! Since joining the program, he has made so many wonderful friends and is always excited to go each day. It's clear that the staff genuinely care about the children and work hard to make every day enjoyable and enriching.We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

My friends and I come here regularly to boulder. It's a smaller gym but quiet and the trainers are…read moresuper helpful. The trainers are experienced climbers who give great tips and techniques to help you progress as a climber. The routes here are set a little harder than other places but if you can master the techniques they're highlighting it does help you get better faster. The crowd that comes here is also local and super friendly. It's a nice departure from Brooklyn boulders as its pretty quiet and much less crowded. The package for a 10 pack is also quite reasonable if you want to really concentrate and get better at climbing. I guess the only real detractor here is that the climbing gym isn't open for open climb all day. It usually has after school classes and individual training sessions earlier on and open climb starts between 630 and 7 depending on the day.

I'm sorry to see that management has taken my review rather personally rather than constructively…read more I'm equally disappointed to be effectively called a liar. While I don't doubt they have their own perspective, this was an accurate description of my experience. Communication from management was very ad-hoc (no one ever 'sat me down' to explain anything) and as mentioned in the original review, they even connected me to a random stranger in a different country instead of one of their own employees. Also sad to see management didn't address the other issues in my review which made me want to cancel my membership. The owner cited me 'moving' as the source of problems. I actually cancelled my membership months before I even knew I was going to move, because of the quality of the sessions declining due to the summer camp set-up, which I mentioned in my original review. This would have given me around three months to make-up the last two sessions of the month I had paid for, which proved impossible to schedule with the new trainer. Around a month before I moved I brought up that I would like to be refunded since I hadn't been able to schedule a session with the new trainer and wouldn't be able to after moving. The owner said they would never have offered me a New Year deal they offer everyone if they had known I was moving... but it's pretty common in New York City to move or change leases after one year. It's not like I moved after six months. I also take issue with the characterization of my schedule as erratic. My schedule is about as normal as anyone who works a typical 9-5 office job. If they had availability earlier in the morning for me, I would have taken that slot but all they had was 8-9. Sometimes, like a normal person, I have to travel for work. Sometimes I have to go in for an early meeting. These things are normal and if they're intolerable than maybe this gym isn't a good fit for anyone with a full-time job. As if my trainers did not need to reschedule just as often for personal reasons. It feels like EA employs a double standard where their trainers are absolved for scheduling conflicts but customers are not. That's not a lie, that's based on the new trainer cancelling on me 4 times, which I still have texts and emails from. I'm not the type to use Yelp solely for bashing on a company (most of the reviews I leave are positive) but I am going to use it for it's intended purpose of describing my experience.

My friends and I (three families) sent our kids this summer and none of us will go back. Despite a…read moresincere effort to deliver a great experience the camp is run unprofessionally. All three of us came away with stories to tell. Everything from the back office to the bus service is weak, communication is poor and outdated and to top it off the owner has a million reasons why it's some else's fault. ('My staff' 'The bus company') We're lucky to have so many great camps in our area. This one didn't work for us.

Last year I had to opportunity to visit the camp. I figured it would be a great opportuniy to leave the city on a hot summer day and get some fresh air. Upon arrival I saw bikes for the campers to ride and a horse. The most beautiful part of the camp is the endless lake. There are boats for the children to row and a clean lake. I didnt have a chance to eat in the dinning hall but there was a beautiful rustic fire place. As a native New York city kid I wish I was able to attened a camp like this in my youth. I feel it would have exposed me to another world we dont see in the hustle and bustle of the boroughs. However I've learned that this organization continues to have many social events throughtout that city that allows anyone to partake.

The staff is accommodating and friendly. Every year they keep improving on the system which speaks volumes about how they are reassessing their system each year to make the camp a better experience every year. I feel safe leaving my daughter in their hands. I truly appreciate the tier payment system since it makes the camp affordable everyone...at times when you earn less you pay less and when you earn more you pay it forward by paying more so a less fortunate family can also attend. The camp is diverse and the counselors are polite and kind to the children. Highly recommend.
