It was amazing party.

5 days ago

We absolutely love our Gymboree class with Aaron! From the moment we walked in, Aaron’s welcoming energy made us feel right at home. His enthusiasm is contagious — he has an amazing ability to keep every child engaged and excited throughout the entire class. It’s so clear that he genuinely loves what he does, and it shines through in the way he connects with each child.

Aaron also made our 1-year-old’s first birthday party so incredibly special. He brought the same fantastic energy and warmth, creating a fun, memorable experience for everyone there. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to lead such an important celebration.

We’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful teacher — Aaron truly makes Gymboree a highlight of our week!

Gymboree Hampstead has been our second home since my daughter was 4 months old. My daughter absolutely enjoys her time there, and the teachers are amazing. Last week we threw my daughter's first birthday there and it was absolutely amazing! Special thanks to Naeema, Lexi and Pav for always going above and beyond for our kids!

My toddler has been to a lot of classes here and we recently hosted his birthday party here too. Aaron is brilliant with the little ones, and the classes are such fun for them. The children (of all ages) love the climbing and play equipment. It’s ideal to practice their motor skills and the combination of songs and group / circle activities with the exploration is ideal.

The party was brilliant, Aaron decorated the party room so wonderfully, loved how easy it made everything and all we needed to do was to bring food/drink. Thank you so much Aaron!

Fantastic Experience at Gymboree for My Daughter’s Birthday!

I recently celebrated my 3-year-old daughter’s birthday at Gymboree, and it was an amazing experience! The kids had an absolute blast, and the mothers were really impressed with Jack’s performance—he did a fantastic job entertaining the little ones!

I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to host a fun, stress-free party. You can hire the venue and bring your own decorations and food, which gives you plenty of flexibility. The entertainment is tailored to your chosen theme, and for us, it was a Unicorn theme—Jack did a great job making it even more special!

Overall, it was a wonderful day, and I would definitely recommend Gymboree for any child’s party. The kids had so much fun, and it was a memorable experience for all of us!

I chose them because the place is very cozy and Aaron really a great person. the kids had a lot of fun. They also provide both the theme and organization (fun, mise en place, balloons) really a pleasant time for us parents to see children having fun.

My daughter has been coming here since around 20 months old. It’s a special place where she learnt to climb, run, jump and simply just have a lot of fun. So it made sense that when we decided to have a 4th birthday party for her with her nursery friends, this would be the best place to have it. And it did not disappoint! We had a structured party - half an hour of free play and 45 mins of a class plus 45 minutes for food and cake. The birthday girl absolutely loved it and all the parents have told me how much fun their children had - ‘amazing party’, ‘lots of fun’, ‘such a good time’, ‘well organised’, ‘thoroughly enjoyed it’, ‘had a blast’ are just a few of the comments received. Thank you to all the Gymboree Watford team - Sandra, Jack, Amber, Hannah and also Mia who taught my daughter when she was younger for helping her grow, develop and have so much fun in these first few years of her life. We don’t come so often now due to nursery but we will always remember you!

We celebrated my son’s 2nd birthday party at Gymboree Wandsworth and it was a huge success! All the kids & parents thoroughly enjoyed the setting & Aaron organised the class amazingly based around our chosen theme. Would highly recommend a Gymboree party with Aaron!

We recently celebrated our child's second birthday at Gymboree Wandsworth, and it was fantastic! The staff was welcoming and attentive, making sure everything was perfect before and during the event. The venue was beautifully decorated and the play area kept the kids entertained for hours. The activity-led by Paul was exceptional, which made the day even more special. We received a lot of positive feedback from our friends that attended the event. We highly recommend Gymboree Wandsworth for a memorable birthday celebration!

We'd just like to thank Brooklyn-Rose for Raaja’s birthday party on Sunday. She was an absolute superstar and everyone - kids and adults - loved the party! Thank you for being so considerate and helpful.

We can't thank you enough for making time for us and giving us such a memorable time.

Both of my children (3.5 years and 11 months) go to Gymboree Play & Music and love it. My toddler goes to their drop-off Lego class which she raves about. It's very creative, working not only on Lego skills but also painting, drawing etc. My infant son loves his Gymboree Play & Music Crawlers class - particularly loves crawling all over their props, through the tunnels, etc. Great way to get the infant crawling over obstacles! Gymboree Play & Music is part of our weekly schedule for both kids and we look forward to participating every week. Invaluable!

Gymboree Play & Music was a lovely and positive experience for my son Leo. We started when he was 9 months and he is now 3 years old, I wish we had started sooner.
He loves the songs (which is part of our daily singing at home), the freedom to explore and he was happy there. He looks forward to class every week and once class is over he will tell everyone about Gymbo and what he did.
For me, I liked that it taught him how to get down safely from a height, how to learn to use his body, and touching on different topics every 2 weeks. It gave me confidence in other environments to trust that he has the ability that he learned from Gymboree Play & Music and to trust him.

I’ve been taking both my newborn and toddler to Gymboree Play & Music for a couple of months now and both boys are really loving the classes and open gym sessions. It’s a great way to meet other mums, entertain toddlers at witching hour(!) and get ideas for sensory play with babies. Sophie and Cat are fantastic and have so much energy and loads of different ideas for the classes, plus make sure the activities it’s help children meet their development milestones as well. Highly recommend this if you’re thinking about joining!! Thanks so much Sophie, Cat and the wider team :-)
