Moving my son to Torquay YMCA ELC is one of the best decisions I have made to support his development. The educators in the Jan Juc room genuinely care about the children, fostering a warm and nurturing space for learning and growth. Their communication is consistent and clear, with almost daily updates. I highly recommend this centre. Their “exceeding” rating is well deserved and they have exceeded my expectations.
Response from the owner10 months agoThank you Anna for such an incredible review of the service and the educators at Torquay YMCA. We are incredibly proud of the educators working in the Jan Juc room and across the whole service. Thank you for taking the time to post this review.

There is a wonderful family feel to the center. The educators show amazing attention and interest in the children and this shows with the kind and supportive interactions between them and between each child. My son loves to tell me about his day and all the activities he participates in. The outdoor space is amazing and used beautifully by all rooms concurrently. All staff have been entirely supportive in the 18 months my son has been attending. Thankyou ymca, your contribution to my sons growth and providing him with life enriching experiences is greatly appreciated.
Response from the ownerover 2 years agoHi Ali, What a lovely review! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We've got a great team here; our staff take a lot of pride in building supportive and caring relationships with the children and we're so pleased you've experienced this first-hand with your son.
