Gymboree Play & Music, Westfield — Local services in Westfield

Our 1.5 year old son, Ryan, has been coming to Gymboree in Westfield for about 3 months now. He really loves it and so do we! We tried out a couple of other kid's gyms in the area prior to signing up, but we liked Gymboree the most!

The reason we liked Gymboree the most was because they have skills that they teach the kids during group time, such as "Over and Under", "Hard and Soft", "Push and Pull", etc. This was different from the other gyms in which group time consisted of taking turns swinging on a bar or sitting on a play mat with balls underneath.

Our Instructor is Ms. Carrie and she is very sweet! She greets Ryan as soon as we walk in and knows all the kids names (even the new kids who just come for try outs). She is really friendly and does a great job of getting all the kids together during group time.

I also really like how they change around the play area every 3 weeks or so to match whatever skills they have planned for the kids. This helps as they never get bored. Also, they do a really great job of keeping the whole facility clean- not a trace of dust or stains anywhere!

Lastly, both the kids and parents are very friendly here. Parents stay close and are attentive to their kids.

5 stars to Gymboree...

I just had a terrible experience here. I'm from the area and I stopped in to purchase Christmas gifts for my granddaughter who loves Gymboree. After 15 minutes with a worker who didn't know the price of the merchandise, needed to call the owner concerning the what was in stock, told me the computer needed to warm up and finally asked if I was in a hurry. I explained that I was, actually, as I was on my way to a party. At that point the woman said that she couldn't sell merchandise while a class was in session. I said,"Well, I wish that you had told me that 25 minutes ago. I guess I'll shop somewhere else." She said, "That sounds good to me." Wow!!! I've always had wonderful experiences with Gymboree..... Not today. IlI' find another play store and I'm sure that I will be treated...

This place has been incredible for my 1 year old and his development and social skills. He’s gotten so much more fearless and outgoing bc of his time here. The instructors are great - v engaged and they are very conscientious about COVID and wiping things down. They move the structures around every few weeks to keep things fresh for the kids. Debbie the owner is also great - very hands-on in her instruction and you can tell she really cares...
