My son joined gymboree since he was around 6 months old. He's 2 now, and he still enjoys the session very much. The session also helped him first to crawl, then walk; now he's running around and climbing everywhere. The host really helped with his development, and he is especially very comfortable with Amber.

Enjoyable family classes, reassuringly clean equipment and lots of fun for our 19 month old.

Wonderful place for the little ones to learn and thrive! Everyone was very kind and helpful and I felt so welcomed and safe with my little twin girls. I've received many great advice and the girls had a great time. Thank you so much!

We’ve had a really lovely experience with Gymboree Play & Music UK. My baby has been attending since 6 months old and is now nearly 15 months, and we’ve enjoyed it throughout. The staff are always friendly, caring, and helpful, and I really appreciate that they always do their best to accommodate requests.
The classes are fun, educational, and great for my baby’s development and confidence. It’s also been wonderful for the social side of development and for making friends with other babies and parents. I also really appreciate the open gym option, as it gives us the flexibility to come often and enjoy the space outside of classes too.
It’s such a welcoming environment for both babies and parents, and I would definitely recommend it to other families.

Cannot recommend Gymboree Watford enough--truly THE BEST! ❤️🙌 What makes it so special are the amazing teachers/staff, especially Amber, Jack, Philippa, and Hannah! They’re not only incredibly talented in music and arts, but they’re also absolutely fantastic with kids of all ages.
My little girl was only 18 months old when we first discovered this wonderful place and started attending sessions. She’s now 5 years old, and we’re still here! That says it all 🥰

We love taking our son to Gymboree, we only started in January but wish we’d started soon. It’s a great place to develop movement skills in particular but they also develop social skills, motor skills and more. We decided to sign up monthly as we feel it’s different from other classes available and the open gym is so much fun. Also we loved the Easter party, so much fun and we got to take a little shaker egg home, which is such a great idea! Amber is our favourite but all the staff are super lovely and interact with our son so well.

Honestly the best decision I ever made for my little one, I went to the same one when I was little and it hasn’t changed a bit still the fun and exciting Gymboree I remember growing up with and the stuff are all so wonderful and lovely.

My toddler and I always look forward to our Gymboree classes. The women that run the sessions are all delightful and engaging. The biweekly themes are fun for both the little ones and the parents. I can highly recommend Gymboree to anyone with a toddler that has lots of energy.

The classes are very good : the teachers are singing, making it fun and my child loves to play / sing / climb / jump everywhere and is having his best time. Itis also nice to meet other friends there.

I liked that they had separate space for play and for food but the time they offer (30min for cake) wasn't enough for a 2yo and we had to rush out.
They also asked for favourite music but never played it and I think that "the teacher" offering games wasn't really doing their job well. Kids still liked it, of course.

My 11 months old son enjoyed coming to Gymboree and exploring different areas as well as the music classes. I'd highly recommend it.

We love our classes at Gymbo! Polly is so warm and amazing with my little one. Each class is different and teaches them confidence and skills.

Love it! My boys have grown in confidence each week, the staff are so friendly, the spare fab. Perfect safe space for managing energetic twins and not feeling worried about where they are and what they’re doing, plus staff are always willing to help if needed. The membership works well and I like the option of adding open gym sessions too.

I've been taking my baby to Gymboree in Bristol since she was a few weeks old, and I'm now about to go back to work after maternity leave. It's been the best baby activity I've been to, and we've tried a few! It's more than a baby group - early on it was an activity to get out of the house for me, and later the multiple sessions during the week and open gyms really helped entertain my daughter when I was running out of ideas. Polly and team are amazing and it feels really inclusive of everyone, I can't praise them highly enough. I can have been having a tough day and l would leave gymboree lighter. I honestly feel very lucky to have been in walking distance of such a lovely and well-run gym/group.

Lovely staff and great classes but unfortunately no drop off classes at the a Bristol franchise for 3+ year olds.
Unfortunately the main website does not make it clear that the drop off classes for older children are not available everywhere, and promotes this as a core offer. We joined online and hoped that I could be with a napping baby whilst big sister had some fun, but these classes weren’t on offer and it was just 0-5s all together.
We gave it a go with one of these classes but it was just too much work with a tiny baby and a toddler to keep in check. We may return when the little one is walking.
Staff are very passionate and it is a great, but just not a good fit for us right now.
