I love going to Gymboree. My daughter loves it. The staff are always so lovely. It's very conveniently located. The only reason I only attend occasionally is because I feel guilty spending so much money on a single session. It is SO EXPENSIVE. £9 to sit in a room with my toddler for 45 mins?! £17.50 for a 45 min class is WILD. I really would love management to look at the prices of classes/sessions at places like apple tree (£8 a session for an hour and a half), whipppersnappers (£11 for a music class, £12.50 for messy play) Margaret's Music prices start from £5.62... etc. I would love to know if Gymboree would ever be able to come down on their prices and why they are as high as they are? In my opinion it should be £6 for open gym and £12.50 for a class - I think that would be reasonable. I think they would get a much higher rate of attendance if they did :) Thanks, and again we do love coming just wish it was a little cheaper . Laura xx

Manager is a crazy woman. Very inflexible and harsh. Staff looked miserable and didn't smile or appear to want to be there

My daughter and her best friend celebrated their 3rd birthdays at Gymboree Cheam. It was the perfect party! Karen made the children feel so special and the acitvities were perfect for their age. I wholeheartedly recommend Gymboree Cheam.

My little boy had the best time at his 3rd birthday party at Gymboree! Lots of playing and having fun, singing songs, popping bubbles and dancing with his friends. The party food room was decorated so nicely and Amy organised everything perfectly to make it easy for us to organise on the day. We all really enjoyed it and would highly recommend a Gymboree party!

We celebrated our daughter’s 3rd birthday at Gymboree and everyone had a fantastic time! Pav and his team were communicative during the planning process and were incredibly helpful with setting up the party. The play room venue is spacious, perfect for older and younger kids and the structured activities kept everyone engaged. We would highly recommend!

Gymboree is sooo much fun for my grandchild and such a blessing for us. The excitement she feels when I say it’s Gymbo time is cute and wonderful. The people who run it are fabulous and fun and put so much into each session. Highly recommend.

Gymboree Tunbridge Wells is truly the most magical place. I know every parent thinks their child is a genius, but I genuinely believe that so many of my daughter’s milestones have been reached early because of the time she spends at Gymboree. She was talking, walking, climbing, and exploring ahead of her peers, and I credit so much of that to the incredible environment and activities here. She has learnt such amazing skills! The space itself is wonderful — safe, clean, and full of opportunities for little ones to run, jump, climb, and burn off energy without any worries. It’s the perfect place for children to develop confidence and independence while having the best time. But for me, Gymboree has been just as important as it has been for my daughter, especially as a mum without a village. I originally thought she needed to be crawling to get the most out of it — I was so wrong! I wish I had joined earlier. What I didn’t realise was how much I would gain. I’ve made lifelong friendships and found a support network of the most incredible people. I was really lonely with no family or friends nearby, and honestly, Gymboree has been a lifesaver. I don’t know how I coped without it. I look forward to going just as much as my daughter does. Thank you to the entire team for creating such a special space — I truly feel like I’ve found my village. x

Excellent opportunity for our little one to experience stimuli for the senses, socialisation, routine and develop mobility in a fun, friendly and supportive setting. Good to have flexibility in the days of the week for attendance. All staff are helpful and welcoming towards children and carers.

Our experience at Gymboree has been truly wonderful for our daughter. She started attending just after her first birthday, and although she hadn't been walking yet, she was inspired and began walking almost immediately. She absolutely adores Gymboree, with its delightful music and the lovely, smiling, affectionate teachers!

Absolutely love Gymboree I have been attending With my little on since she was 7 weeks old, started off with baby massage then onto baby sensory, crawlers now runners. The staff are fantastic so attentive to all the children and really go out their way to get to know each child individually. I look forward to attending gymboree each week not only for my little one but for myself as well to get a catch up with all the other mums and dads. It really is just a great little community and 100% would recommend it to anyone.

Very helpful in enrolling my child in a different class because of an absence during scheduled class. The classes are priced slightly more than what is offered to the kids.

Aaron (Wandsworth) is amazing. My daughter's physical development came on leaps and bounds in the time she was taking classes with him, which I attribute primarily to the amazing classes Aaron ran.

Tommy loves it at Gymboree! It’s the one place he can just do what he wants and knowing he lands on the padded mats. The Gymboree baby classes and crawler classes so far have really helped his development and with starting to walk! It has that one to one feel even though it’s a large room/group. The staff are so caring and encouraging towards little ones. We always have fun!

Aaron demonstrates outstanding pedagogical competence in his work with children of different ages. He shows remarkable sensitivity and adaptability, tailoring his approach to the individual needs of each child while maintaining a warm, supportive atmosphere. His ability to de-escalate tense situations with calmness and empathy reflects both his professionalism and his genuine love for children. With a captivating voice and a thoughtful selection of activities and musical accompaniment, Aaron engages children creatively while fostering joy and focus. His organizational skills and impeccable timing ensure smooth, well-structured sessions, while his dedication and wholehearted commitment make a lasting impact on both children and parents. He consistently displays a high level of expertise in working with diverse age groups, building trust and strong relationships with families.

My daughter Maya started Aaron’s classes when she was 12 months old. At the time she was very shy and quite reserved around new people, always a bit wary with strangers. She’s been going for about 4 months now and the difference in her is amazing – she’s so much more confident, joins in happily, and really enjoys every moment of the classes. Aaron has such great energy and enthusiasm, and you can tell he’s genuinely passionate about what he does. The way he engages with the children makes them feel comfortable and included, and it’s clear how much they enjoy learning and playing with him. He is truly brilliant with kids, and we feel really lucky to have found his classes.

Aaron has been a wonderful teacher and we have loved being involved with his music classes (beautiful singer) and half term camps that he ran. The children adore him. He always had a wonderful age appropriate set up and the venue was always so clean and tidy. You can tell how much he cares about it all and that teaching is his passion. I highly recommend Aaron as a teacher.

Well managed, well resourced play space for children to explore and learn safely. Sessions are thoughtfully organised at a developmentally appropriate level. Most importantly, my daughter absolutely loves going to Gymboree!

We have had such a great experience with Aaron at Gymboree Wandsworth. My daughter would look forward to every session, whether it’s a runners class, music class, or open gym! He keeps the facilities tidy, does regular set up changes, and different themes each week. His parties are also so much fun! It’s been a huge part of my daughter’s development and socialization - and she loves Aaron!
