Several pools including a shallow area for small children, and reviewers rate the staff with kids across swimming, gymnastics and camp. The recurring complaint is seating and shade around the pool, which runs short on hot days, so take a chair. Reviewers also report booking and billing mix-ups, so keep receipts.
Run in partnership with the city and open to the public, with a 25-metre pool plus a separate shallow activity pool with a water play structure for little kids. Call ahead — lap swim, lessons and rec swim rotate, and the family pool isn't always open.

Everything seemed very clean they had many different pools and a fun kid area for small kids. I didn’t like I called the day before and a guy told me wrong swim time so I had to make 2 trips. One thing they should improve is have more available seating and shade! Put chairs in front of lockers that nobody uses or don’t rope of so many tables and chairs for parties when there aren’t parties scheduled. Seating situation needs to be fixed with how hot it gets and how many people you allow in or warn people to bring their own chairs.

I want to give a big thank you to Katelyn, Alexa and Brooklyn for their awesome help during my granddaughters 7th birthday party on Saturday, April 18th. They were wonderful, jumped right in to help setup and decorate. Were awesome with the kids in the gym assisting the children through the obstacle course and on the equipment. All of the children had a wonderful time. Parents and kids were smiling and enjoying the experience. I highly recommend booking the Santee YMCA for your child's birthday party gymnastics package. If you are able to request the staff who facilitates the party. Ask for Alexa, Katelyn and Brooklyn! They were great with all the kids! Every child felt included and had a super time; girls, boy and children on the children on the spectrum.
