Gymboree Play & Music, Scottsdale

Our 14 month old daughter literally gets so excited every time we walk into the Gymboree building! Miss Alex is absolutely AMAZING with the babies. Our daughter is in the walkers group so it’s definitely an energetic and sometimes chaotic age group but Alex is so passionate about what she does in every single moment of the group. She is sweet, graceful, fun, patient and has the best signing voice that the babies love! I would recommend this Gymboree to all of my friends and anyone with a child that needs to make friends, get socialized, let some energy out and practice new skills. I cant wait to bring our baby who is due in November to Gymboree as soon as she’s old enough and we will keep coming back until we can’t anymore! Thank you Alex for making this such a special place for kids and their families.

Always have had a wonderful experience here and the staff has been wonderful since day 1 with my little one. My child has shown so much development since going to Gymboree and I can’t recommend it enough! Alexandra was lovely and attentive and her art class was all that my daughter could talk about for a week!

Let me start off by saying Gymboree has been amazing for our toddler. The classes they offer are fantastic and really help with socialization, sensory learning, preparing for preschool with preschool steps , sharing, patience , all of the basics and more for babies through toddlers. The pandemic has been very difficult for parents and children especially being confined to home. Gymboree gave us a safe space to learn and explore together and also independently to help with separation anxiety once’s she starts preschool.

Mrs.Alex at the scottsdale location is so friendly and kind. Our daughter has loved going and always asks about Mrs. Alex when we are at home. This has been such an amazing experience And Mrs. Alex is a huge part of that. The only downside is I wish they would135 offer more classes so we could do preschool steps 2x a week instead of 1x which is the current offer. However we added the art class on Monday days as well so we do go 2x a week for class now so that’s been great to help keep our toddler active. Another benefit if you have the membership you can attend any open gym times which are a huge help in Arizona when it’s 110 outdoors to have an inside play area for kids. If you do one class a week and open gym it makes the membership so affordable. For reference to e pay around $135 a month. You can’t do 1x a week for preschool for that price so it’s a steal. I almost forgot to add they do cool summer programs for big kid toddlers I think 3-5 on stem and they do holiday parties you can sign up for and pay an additional fee for that like a class. We did Valentine’s Day and Halloween so fun !

We have only had great experiences here! Your first class is always free so I recommend giving it a try to make sure you pick a class that’s a good fit for your family. We have really enjoyed the music class. They are extremely flexible and understanding with scheduling and have a lenient make up policy. And I can’t forget to mention that this place is always SPOTLESS. They’re constantly cleaning and sanitizing things because they truly care about the kids staying healthy.

I am a former employee of Gymboree and I currently bring my son there and we started when he was 8 weeks old. I first walked into Gymboree 7 years ago with a child I was nannying. I loved the program as soon as we walked in, so much so I applied for a job! Everyone treated me Iike family and we are still close friends today. It was so special to be able to be in an environment where you can watch children learn through play. I always enjoyed being the fun part of their day!
