  My 7 month old loves coming here! She smiles the whole time. It's playtime but also physical therapy since they have activities based on the baby's development. My daughter is working on crawling so Ms. Betsy (who's amazing!) catered some playtime to help her get used to the positions. Bradley is also incredibly helpful and has answered my multiple questions! Highly recommend Gymboree!

  We have had the very best time at Gymboree over the past 2 months. We started with one class a week and added a 2nd. My son is clearly learning and growing here and has made little friends. The teachers and staff could not be more wonderful! Such a special place.

  All teachers we met are all very friendly and passionate, however the blonde receptionist (or maybe she's the manager, we're going again tomorrow and find out her name and going to report her) is super rude and racist. As soon as she saw us, she started telling me "oh the class is full" and then she started asking me if we're with them - of course we're a member otherwise why would we be here?! Then she started telling me "oh you guys can wait and play in the lobby and come back" I don't need you to tell me to play in the LOBBY. What a ridiculous rude horrible person can't believe someone like her work at a kids school / child care facility. Maybe that's why she is never qualified to be a teacher and is only allowed to stand there and pick up phone calls. Gymboree should definitely find a nicer person to replace her instead of letting her continue to ruin your reputation and make this facility a racist place. - A very offended customer

  My 14 months old loves this Gymboree. It's a not at all fancy, slightly beat up venue for kids classes and preschool (0-5) that somewhat pales in comparison with a nearby newer (and more expensive) NYkids club but it is perfect for newborns, crawlers, pre-walkers or shy kids - it is on a smaller scale and not as crowded. The staff is always super friendly and personable. Miss Sofia is just amazing. You've go to try her class: she has a great voice and that special grace gifted teachers have. She is incredibly warm and patient with kids. What's more important, she has a very authentic demeanor and clearly loves teaching her cookie monsters. My son loves the free (you have to attend classes to have this perk, but otherwise it is free) unstructured open gym playtime (30, 45, 60 or 90 minutes, depending on schedule). It's usually not as crowded, with 1-5 kids at the same time, even in inclement weather, whereas NYkids club would have up to 20 kids (and would require you to purchase a $20 pass to attend such playtime).
