I am very pleased with this location. My son has been here for the past 5 years. The teachers have assisted my child with his homework and school projects. He has excelled in school this year and for that I am great full for the excellent teachers and staff.

My experience with Fit kids has been great. Nothing is perfect but i have always been given the time to speak yo any of the managerial staff with any concerns.. Stephanie, was great with communicating good and bad things with me about my son. Any concerns I had I can always go to her.. I called to check if my son has arrived to Fitkids via a private bus feom school and with care and promptly i have been advised.
Maria and Mercy in the front are careful to whom the release the children to which makes me feel my son and other children are safe. Also they know all the kids names. LOL... Thank you

I am currently undergoing an investigation and police report due to improper discipline. They have admitted to have kids sitting for long periods of time on the floor while staring at a wall. I would not recommend this to any parents who really care about their child's well-being.

Horrible experience. Lack of communication all around. The director is extremely unprofessional. Very defensive. First time taking my son here and last time. I will NEVER recommend this camp to anyone. Teachers yell at their students. Most of them dont speak English. Instead of a camp where they can have fun, they treated my son like it was boot camp. I was told they were preparing him for school. Excluded my son from events.. PAID field trips. When asked for refund there was excuses. Still pending a refund. Very unpleasant experience. Very unprofessional.
