Tot watch/child watch if i could give 0 stars i would. Ranah at child always messes with my kid. She has called my kid " crazy"just because a 6 yr old doesnt greet you doesbt make them crazy. This is the 3 time i have to deal with stuff like this with this team. They seem not to leave my kid alone .Especially the night team They seem to be on kids behind: buts. If a kid starts jumping they say stop or i will call your parents. They also give the kids toys / balloons. and expect them not to play/ throw around the toys. They will greet my kid at the childwatch door with hey you were angry will you be angry today. They will offend yor Kid i dont feel oky with leaving my kid here mor than 20 minutes because they will ruin his mood. I dont think they are trained properly. I never leave reviews for anyone but this is too far. Hopefully they can beter themseleves.
Carondelet Park Rec Complex is an awesome facility! The equipment is in great shape, the pool is always clean, and the staff makes everyone feel welcome. There’s a nice mix of programs — fitness classes, open gym, swimming, and even community events. You can tell they really care about keeping the place in top shape and creating a positive environment for everyone. Highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area!
Beautiful location. Wonderful park just outside. Building is large and offers a big variety of fitness options for all levels. Equipment is well maintained and the facility is kept clean. The staff are all friendly and polite. Classes vary from beginners to more established and options for seniors also available. Lots of natural lighting make it a nice space to work out in.
I have officially canceled my membership. Today 9/8/2024 my car was broken into, my wallet with all my Ids and Cards were stolen, and my iPad was stolen. 2 weeks before that, someone stole my keys out of my locker. The staff was nonchalant about the car break and even got upset at me for asking questions. I was a very loyal member. I genuinely loved the amenities of this gym (hot tub, classes, equipment, location). I was in Zumba, Step, Core, Pilates, Yoga, and so many more classes. My niece was on the kids soccer team. I got my family and friends to become members. I would rave about how great this place (except the racism) was to anyone looking for a gym. The pool area was the closest thing I've ever had to a vacation. I came every other day, it was like my 2nd home. This gym saved my life, I had gone through some trauma and joining the gym really helped me heal myself. I lost 60 pounds and got in shape. I adored this place. So much so that I put up with racism, harassment and possible stalking for years...but this is the last straw. My identity has been compromised and $500 plus worth of property has been stolen. I'm devastated, but will find a better Gym. I've attached pics of my old reviews so people can understand the context.
