HOMESTRETCH KIDS CLUB

If you’re looking for an afterschool program where your kids are actually known and cared about, this is it. You can really feel how much Ellia cares about what she’s building. She’s put together a team that works well together and truly shows up for the kids every day. Everyone is kind and welcoming, and they’ve made a real effort to get to know our family. That’s meant a lot to us. We’ve tried other programs before, and this just feels different. I’ll never forget that from the beginning, her and Esther said they aim to make it feel like a second home, an “in-home child care in a safe, professional setting.” And honestly, that’s exactly how it feels. The communication is great, and the relationships the staff build with the kids remind me more of extended family than just a program. Both of my kids feel comfortable there. They’re supported, encouraged, and genuinely cared for. The new space is so much bigger than where they started, and the kids really use all of it. The team goes the extra mile in ways big and small, jumping into messy activities with the kids, mentoring them, running a fun little snack store, staying on top of communication through the apps, and keeping everything clean and organized. We’re just really grateful we found this place. It’s been such a positive experience for our family!

We absolutely love the team at Homestretch Kids Club! Our child started in the Fall and the owner, Ellia, and her team have been nothing short of wonderful and accommodating to our and our child's needs. Ellia went above and beyond during the Beverly strike to make sure kids were taken care of and parents had adequate care, and we'll be forever grateful!

My seven year old son attended homestretch for afterschool . I recommend it without reservations. Everyday when they picked him up from school they checked in with him exactly how I would have and asked how his day was. While at aftercare they helped him with school work , played games with him, helped him build positive friendships , and did crafts. What really stood out to us is that they genuinely loved my son , saw his strengths , and celebrated his accomplishments. He also loved going to the park with them! He looked forward to going each day because he knew he was valued.
