  • I highly recommend the ymca olyphant location where we attend. My son has been attending ymca daycare program for over 2yrs now. I absolutely love it. He has grown so much with speaking, potty training, socializing and his excitement to learn is awesome. He also loves Miss Mindy his favorite teacher. As well as the others.

  • Great experience. I always have a hard time leaving my daughter because I love her so much, but they always send pictures to ease my mind of her smiling and playing. If I've ever had a concern, its been addressed prompty. The facility is very clean. They're very accommodating. Extremely informative.

  • DONT LISTEN TO THE GOOD REVIEWS!!! YOULL REGRET IT!!! ANYWHERE BUT HERE!!!! Horrific management. My granddaughter had a bad experience here. Teachers were good, but when presented with issues about other kids being VIOLENT and disruptive, administration didn’t handle these issues correctly! Not these poor kids faults at all, not the teachers faults either, but managements fault for not being strong and saying “I’m sorry that we cannot accommodate your child here, but we recommend a school that specializes in children with their behavior.” After speaking with many other parents, they had the same experience as well. Don’t send your kid here unless you want them around other dangerous kids!
