King'S Bay Ym-Ywha Infant Care

We had a very positive experience with Kings Bay Y Summer Camp back in 2024 when we paid in cash. Our child was placed at their main building on Nostrand Avenue, and we were satisfied with the environment, transportation (for an additional fee), and the overall camp activities. However, in 2025, we decided to enroll our child again, this time using a voucher. Initially, everything seemed fine, and they accepted our son based on our previous good experience. Unfortunately, just one day before camp started, we were informed that there were no spots left in the main building. They moved him to a nearby sub-location on Avenue U. We agreed to this change, but the conditions at the sub-location were extremely disappointing. The facility was dirty, the food provided was poor, and the supervision was inadequate. Our 8-year-old son was placed in a group with children ranging from toddlers to teenagers, which led to daily conflicts. He ended up in fights and even lost some money from his pocket during this chaotic experience. We had paid for four weeks via the voucher, but after just two visits, we stopped sending him. We requested a transfer back to the main building, but the management ignored us, and by that time it was too late to join another summer camp. In the end, they took the full payment, but our child only attended for a very short time. We feel other parents should be aware of this experience. Unfortunately, our 2025 experience was nothing like the previous year, and we cannot recommend them based on what happened this time.

Dirty. For those who want feet nail fungus, no place is better. For those who want poorly handled equipment and unmanaged facilities, no place is better. For those who don’t care about polite and pleasant atmosphere, it comes second after NYC subways. For those who like black bugs flying over smelly and oder filled showers , welcome in. For those who want quality - I highly recommend to stay away.

Our 3К is very good. The principal, teachers and employees of KingsBayYm are very responsive, understanding, can always help. We found our 3K on the recommendation of friends and will be satisfied. There is a large parking lot nearby in the building, it is very convenient. The same organization has many events for all ages. There is also a swimming pool and a hall. The inside and outside of the building is always clean. I recommend who will join this great organization in the future. Our son goes to 3K, from autumn they have to go to PRE-K. There are camps in the summer. I recommend it with pleasure.

My son joined the summer camp for his first time last summer (5y/o) and had so much fun I pre-registered for this summer already. The camp is run well and all the camp counselors, directors and admins were kind and welcoming. Communication was great and facilities are well maintained. Also love that it is a very diverse community. My son has also been participating in their swim program since he was 4. I have seen significant improvement with the awesome coaches and am looking forward to seeing more this semester.

This is the second year my son has attended the Kings bay Y preschool . He is thriving and growing in so many ways. When he started he was in the 2k class and now he attends the 3k program. His teachers are welcoming and make him want to come to school even on the weekends. I go to work each day knowing he is happy, safe and getting the best possible early childhood experience.
