This is a great option for an affordable, all day camp. Bonus, if you live in South Tampa, there's…read morea bus from the South Tampa Y to Camp Cristina, which my kids loved. And that meant that my kids were supervised and entertained from 7:30am until 5:15pm. Yay! They do the "typical" summer camp stuff that you don't really get to do in urban Tampa - canoeing, archery, zip lining/ropes course. They also went swimming, played basketball and soccer, did arts and crafts. No screen time, which was a relief compared to so many camps that show movies during lunch or allowed kids to use personal devices during camp hours. My 8 and 10 year olds had great time. Breakfast and lunch are provided, although my kids complained about their low quality and brought their food after the first day. This is really a great resource for working parents as so many camps are only from 9 to 3.

For most weeks he is signed up for Waterfront Camp and we were not sure if it would be the best option for him. We have no regrets, he excitedly shares all the things he does each day and really wants us to purchase kayaks. He is in 2nd grade and will be 8 in a few weeks. He also attends their afterschool program, Kid Day Out when schools are closed, takes swimming lessons, horseback riding and participates in Run Club all at YMCA Camp Cristina. It is his Happy Place! They are very responsive and quick to respond when we have questions or concerns. I generally send an email and within a few hours I have receive a reply or phone call.

My kids go to Victory Martial Arts Academy - Ruskin well, not anymore. My son tells me today that…read morethe bus driver took them off route yesterday and took my kids to his home, mind you the only 2 kids on his bus are my kids. My kids did not go inside of his house, but the driver needed to see if he had a package. The driver got off the bus and left my kids unattended while he checked to see if his package came. This is the same driver who started to drive off when my kids stepped on The bus without even sitting down and putting seat belts on- so he had multiple complaints against him from me. I speak to the owner today and I tell him it's only right he makes this situation right with me. The owner tells me I should feel bad for the driver because he fired him... Are you kidding me?? This guy literally kidnapped my kids for a little while he went on a joy ride to his house and I should feel bad that he got fired?

The owner, Desh, is FANTASTIC with the kids and she really gets kids excited about practical applications of science and technology. Desh is really high energy, keeps the kids excited and involved, and is great at dealing with those hiccups that inevitably come up when you've got a room full of 1st graders. We just moved out of the area, and I seriously considered postponing our move a few months just so we could have my daughter's party there. I've never seen another center like this, and I *so* wish there was one up here where I am.

Teddy and the other coaches are knowledgable, encouraging, and supportive to every child. My son struggles with new experiences and has difficulty with stamina.

We plan to continue attending TBDA sessions through the school year. Thanks so much Teddy and coaches for being a light in this city. You are all a blessing! My son tells me he is the GOAT =)
