I never felt that comfortable, and my son was not too keen on going.

A few other times we took him, there was a female staff member present who was more attentive and communicative with us, but not really engaging with the kids. Your assumptions are correct that the attendants are not childcare specialists. When we took our son to their childcare center and the first time, I was a little concerned because they had a very young (definitely under 20, and possibly under 18 year old) customer service type employee working in the center and he was not very engaging with us or the kids. We actually became members because they offer childcare at reasonable hours, and our local 24 Hour Fitness did not.

We used to go to the City Sports on San Pablo (within the last 2 years). Both East Bay YMCAs have it, but they're a bit far for us. I believe it's $6/hour but I neglected to write that down.Īny insight is appreciated, or any recommendations on North Oakland / South Berkeley / Emeryville area gyms that offer childcare. One person on staff - I assume a gym employee, not necessarily a childcare specialist - and they don't change diapers, which is pretty standard.

So, if anyone else is starting from zero like I was, the hours are: The whole gym is pretty new, I should say, so maybe it's just actually clean! I'm not a member but am looking for someplace nearby to join, and no childcare / bad childcare is a dealbreaker.Īlso, I couldn't find any information online about their childcare hours, but the guy at the desk let me snap a picture of the schedule. Has anyone done the drop-off childcare at City Sports Berkeley on San Pablo, just south of Ashby? I went with my two year old and took a look at the child space when it was closed, and it looked pristine - like, almost concerningly so, like nobody's actually brought their kid in.
