The director Roxann is amazing, compassionate, understanding, and supportive. Ms. Crystal, Ms. Ketty, Ms. Taslima, and Ms. Pavarthi have been so good to us. Ms. Corey is so creative and interactive.

I've never regretted more putting my kids in the care of a person as I did this highly rated…read morecompany. I don't understand how this place is so highly rated, and cost such a high amount for the amount of compaints I received from my wife when picking up the kids and from my 3 year old herself. Ranging from my daughter crying to me about "writing the WRONG way" because she is left handed and being forced to use her right hand, to the teacher (Ms.Nicole specifically) not allowing her to use her blanket during nap time because she didn't want to sleep and was cold. This place is not nearly worth the amount of money it cost. Not to mention just the bad business aspect of it as well. I took a week long vacation, informed them I was going to be gone for the full week and my kids would not be attending that week and was still charged for the full-time service charge. I can understand charging me part-time for the week because I was still taking a roster slot, but not the full time charge, that's just bad business in my opinion trying to squeeze every dime out of their customers. On the note of charging your customers for every dime possible, during the one on one visit where they go over every aspect of the school they inform you of all the during school activities they do. Ranging from soccer, sports, dance classes, cooking classes and tons of great sounding things to get your children's creativity flowing. What they don't inform you of is they charge you for these classes extra, and pump it into your kids so they come home begging to do these classes. They also have a no discipline rule and rarely inform you when something goes wrong. My daughter was smacked in the face with a toy and came home with a large black eye and I was not given an "accident report" until I exclaimed my concern her eye upon picking her up. My children were only in their care for roughly 6 months and it was a terrible experience. If not for my promotion at work and allowing my wife to become a stay at home Mom I would not have kept my kids there and would of returned to a smaller situation that is more hands on like a home daycare. I can not stress enough how much parents should avoid this place! I've never put a review on Yelp.com before and made an account just to warn parents of this place because they should be aware of it. It's not a good place to put your kids. If even ONE customer decides not to participate in Kindercare because of this review then my 15 minutes writing this was not wasted.

After having a not so great experience at a day care center, we came to Heidy in a panic needing…read moresomewhere for our little guy. Heidy was incredibly responsive, kind, and reassuring during this time, and we instantly knew she was the one we were looking for. Since then she has not only met our expectations, but surpassed them. Our son truly LOVES going to Heidy and sometimes doesn't want to leave. I have truly never seen a space as neat and tidy as Heidy's. She takes this as a priority which is so appreciated. Our son was sick every other week when he attended a center, but not with Heidy! You could tell the kids at Heidy's are respectful and thrive with the routines she has provided. Our son came to Heidy with an iffy nap time routine and Heidy fixed that within a short amount of time. I would recommend Heidy to anyone looking for reliable and safe childcare where you never have to worry during the work day!

I had an awful experience with the aquatics director. I asked a lifeguard to put her mask on, she refused. She went to get the aquatics director and he supported her, stating the lifeguards did not have to wear masks 100% of the time. The aquatics director is unpleasant to say the least. He enables young peopl's poor behavior and was extremely unprofessional and intimidating towards me, as I was at the front desk, canceling my membership. He stood within 5 ft of me, mocking me and pushing me out with his presence. He is unprofessional! He ruins this YMCA!

My daughter was an instructor here and everything was completely last minute, rosters, bus numbers for kids, the first official day June 28th kids were still waiting and staff were still working until after 6:30!!!! All because the two main instructors of this organization Stephanie Leaphart And Barbara Alexander didn't have any of their sh*t together. The whole first week everyday it was almost the same thing not knowing where kids needed to be, making them miss busses, and staff still working later than clock out time.
