My boy has been going to Sky Gym at Turf City since he was about 1.5 y.o. The place is really large and very kid-friendly, and the teachers good as well. He's almost 4 and Sky Gym is still his favourite activity. btw since i'm new i thought i'd better also say that I'm not related to them at all! |

Hello yes my young son has been going to Ski Gym too for more than a year! The staff are generally all friendly and show quite a bit of patience, at first was a bit nervous sending them there of course but eventually I think my kid had fun and i got my well deserved breaks! |

My eldest gal used to attend MyGym at Marine Parade. She started when she was about 14 mths and went on for abt a yr. It's a combination of music, gym, song and dance etc. Currently her sis who's 13mth is also with MyGym but at the Tampines Junction branch. We like that fact that it helps in their physical development. It's also a great and safe place for them to climb, jump and round around. No worries about falling etc. There's a 'Welcome Day' this weekend. It's free for all who register. Go through the class and see if you like it. |

I find that it has a great location-free parking! |

Hi Chris, If Tanglin Mall is convenient for you, you should try Kindermusik. Although its not a gym, their music and movement classes are quite stimulating for the babies. My 9 month old girl have been attending their Village class for 3 months now and she just loves it! The teachers know what they are doing and are well-trained, their staffs are friendly too. www.kindermusik.com.sg |

Can't really remember :p if i'm nt wrong, it's about $300+ with materials. Yes there's a trial class. I think it's about $26-32. Can't remember. I really like their sessions. Something which i realised; sat sessions are more crowded than sun bt not cramped unlike gymboree. I tried at gymboree & didnt like it at all. The teachers are yelling rather than singing :p but then, u shld go for a trial at any places & decide frm there. For me, kindermusik is the best! |

shermine, maybe when she doesn't like the particular activity.. for eg she doesn't like to play with scarf, so when it has to do with scarf activity, she just switch off.. other than that, if it's swaying and singing to music and playing with musical instruments, she is ok with it. is your child attending kindermusik too? |

Hi all, i think you are referring to Sky Gym @ Turf City. Here's the website: www.skygym.com.sg, and it's on facebook also: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Singapore/Sky-Gym/133220396708070 Full disclosure: I work at Sky Gym, but all I'm going to provide here is the link to their website. It would seemed biased for me to write anything here. I'm expecting my little one to arrive in October also, that's why I'm in this forum. You can check my profile and the threads I was on, I was looking for a gynae then. Cheers  |

Hi, Just to share my experience with Gymboree. I've bought a family package and it's about to due by 2 Jun 11, however due to a injury, my boy is unable to attend those classes for 2 weeks as per doctor advise. I've requested for a 2 weeks extension since I've a lot of classes left in my package, however it was rejected due to the terms & condition stated in the purchase of this package. The setup of Gymboree is for money generating and not early childhood developmemt from what I see here. How can they use T&C to push away a small request of 2 weeks extension, when my boy has a valid doctor medical cert to rest at home? I hope other parents will take note of such T&C whenever you think of purchasing any package from Gymboree Tanglin. |

Hi I would like to share my experience with Gymboree Harbourfront branch. My girl is 6 months old and she first joined the Level 1 class (for 1 - 6 months. She seemed to enjoy the class and the principal is seemed interacting with all the parents - she even remembered my girl's name. On the second session, my girl somehow threw a tantrum and refused to do what the teacher did. We had no choice but to leave the class half-way. However, one of the teaching assistants told us to stay back for the Level 2 class (for 6 months to 10 months) to see whether my baby like it as she felt that my girl could have grown up and not used to lying down as in level 1. Instead of just taking charging me of that class, the centre allowed me to attend another class to see whether my baby can adapt. In addition, as I would be away for work and not able to bring baby for the subsequent class, the centre is kind enough to understand and allow me to do that. So far, I have very good experience with Gymoboree Harbourfront. |

Hi, my gal went to MyGym @Tampines since she was 12-mths old (nw 18-mth). She was blur and not cooperative for the firts few weeks. But over a mth, she loves to go there and can do routine on her own. I think it is quite good, friendly teachers. Usually abt 3 teachers per session. My little comment on this plc =) |

Hi, I brought my first child to Gymboree and he loved love it. As it is common for working parents like us not going there regularly, they seems to be very understanding. They extended our classes many occasions where we were out of town. Teachers are friendly too. I will be bringing my second child there soon. Must give it a trial to find out. |

Hi mummies, I wanted to share my bad experience with Gymboree Harbourfront. I signed up a play&music package in May for my son when he was 10 mth old then. i was told there isnt any time limit to complete the package and hence, i signed up for it as my son seemed to enjoy the trial class. Since then we have been going for the class averaging abt 2-3 times a month as we were bored by the repetitive activities during the classes. and also sometimes my son fell sick too. Today, we went to a higher level class as my son is already 16mth old. i was approached by a lady at the counter half way thru the class and told me that i have 1 remaining lesson left after today's class. Hence, i checked thru my records after the class and realized i shld have 2 lessons more to go. So i asked the lady check for me and she took her own sweet time to check and when she realised that she made a mistake, she didnt apologise to me and continue to tell me that i need to finish the 2 remaining lessons within the next 2 weeks. When i told her that this wasnt pointed out to me and she took out the registration form and pointed out to one of the clauses that mention 'make-up class has to be completed within the registered period' ?!?!?! then i continued to say that doesnt mean anything on the time frame to complete my package. Moreover i will be traveling next week so i requested for Nov to complete my package. To make matter worse, she said cannot. have to complete within next 2 weeks. if we are traveling, we have to show passport proof or if the child is sick, we hv to show MC!!! This is really ridiculous to me. Firstly they counted my attendance wrongly, no apology. Then the miscommunication on the time frame to complete the lessons also no apology and went on to insist that i hv to complete the 2 remaining lessons within the next 2 weeks and dun even allow room for negotiation. Lastly, when i said i will not bring my son back there anymore and she cant be bothered abt it!!! To be frank, my son doesnt seem to learn anything much other than his motor skills. Come to think abt it, it's really a waste of time and money!! |
