I had my four year old in the afterschool program. He has ADHD and the program just wasnt for him unfortunately. Every day I was getting reports of him having loud outbursts or not paying attention not listening or bothering the other children. I feel like they should have had an alternate option for children that do need more one on one attention. It was overstimulating him and I couldnt take him the reports anymore. As much as I needed him
To be watched after school I felt like he was singled out a lot unfortunately just due to the lack of resources for children with his behaviors. I expected more from a YMCA. I will however say the place was class, director was very nice and shes why I made the choice to take him out because she was honest and said for herself its too much going on for him there. Its hurting him socially more than it was beneficial. The teachers however are teenagers or very new to the field. They need more patience and learn about children with mental disabilities and challenges. I feel like with more experienced care providers or actual teachers and therapist it would have been a great place for him. Ill try again once he gets older.
