Why Families Love Our Program
"Great program. Riley has a few favorite teachers. That makes a huge difference. It's been great to see her progress towards learning to write...Thank you so much!" - Brian Maloney
"We have had a fabulous experience at the Berlin YMCA Little Huskies at Hubbard! My son started at the Y about a year ago. He was nervous to leave his old daycare to start at a new preschool, but Cindy and her staff made him (and me) feel so welcomed and comfortable. My son has learned so much in the program - from letters, to math, and science and geography.
As a teacher myself, I feel confident in saying that the YMCA program has prepared my son for kindergarten and beyond. Cindy and her staff are great with communication and supporting all of the families in the program with any questions or concerns that may arise. I would recommend this program to anyone with a young child! " - Kristen Holmes
We are so glad we chose the Berlin YMCA Little Huskies program. The development we have seen in our daughter over the past year is fantastic. She is doing awesome. - The Matteo Family
Ever since our daughter started in this program there has been a huge change in her behavior, what she is learning and what she knows. Her teachers do an excellent job and the structure of the program is great. The program is also very affordable. - The Lawrence Family
