Testimonials
- Our daughter Maddy attended Lake Gwelup YMCA before school care for 6 years, from Pre-Primary through to year 6 (when she decided she was too old to attend), and occasionally Vacation Care. The carers changed throughout that time but the quality of care provided never did. The staff have always been friendly and helpful creating an atmosphere of friendship and camaraderie with the children. The level of professionalism and skill base always made me feel extremely comfortable leaving one of my most precious possessions in their capable hands. Nothing was ever too much trouble and at times when ad hoc care was required we were always accommodated. I would like to say a big thank you to all the carers over the years for your help and dedication without which it would have been extremely difficult for my husband and me to pursue our careers in the manner we have been able to, without having to worry about child care. Thank you for the opportunity to provide feedback for a service that has assisted us so well.
- My daughter has attended Lake Gwelup YMCA after school and Vacation Care for the past five years and we have experienced nothing but an excellent and professional service. I feel secure in the knowledge that my child is being cared for in a safe and caring environment. My hours are often unpredictable and Mark is so understanding, accommodating and takes a lot of the stress out of being a working mum! I don't have to worry about my daughter at the end of the school day. I would like to sincerely thank the team at Lake Gwelup for everything they do for our family. They are amazing!
- My children, Henry 7 and Charlotte 6, have been attending YMCA at Lake Gwelup Primary for around 18 months. They are always very happy to attend, have made a lot of other friends at after school care, and are always smiling when I collect them. They are also more than happy to attend the holiday club if I am working. Mark and Caroline and the team at Lake Gwelup come highly recommended! Smiles all round!
