Gymboree Play & Music, Reno | Washoe County, NV
About this class
Gymboree is one of those places that actually knows what they're doing with the little ones - they've got real curriculum backing up their play time, so it's not just expensive babysitting. Your kiddo will get to crawl around on different textures, slide down mini slides, and do all that sensory stuff that makes their brains happy, while you get to chat with other parents who also haven't showered in three days. The teachers are pretty hands-on with guiding activities but they're not militant about it, so if your crawler wants to explore that tunnel for the fifth time instead of doing circle time, nobody's going to stress about it. It's structured enough that you feel like you're actually helping with development, but chill enough that you won't feel like a failure when your kid has a meltdown halfway through. Because let's be real, we're all just winging it and hoping our kids turn out okay!
Families love how their little ones come home excited to share new songs they learned in class, turning everyday moments into spontaneous dance parties in the living room.

As a licensed educator and behavior specialist, with over a decade of experience, I cannot speak highly enough of the knowledge and expertise Ms. Sherii brings to our community. Enrolling my son in Gymboree is the single greatest gift I have given his development. The activities are uniquely designed to foster critical thinking and social emotional development, gross and fine motor growth, spacial reasoning, and receptive and expressive language skills. I am forever grateful for the invaluable benefits of this hands on experience that I am able to share with my child.

I can't say enough great things about this place. Miss Sherri and Miss Tara are amazing. We homeschool and I supplement with their classes. My son was able to experience a graduation I didn't think he would get and I will never forget that. I am looking forward to sending my daughter next!

Ms. Sherri is amazing with the kids and parents! I don’t know how she does it. She always remembers every child’s name for the classes, is so helpful in scheduling and overall, she’s a great person who you’d want your child to be around! I think she runs most of the classes, that’s why she’s important in this review. I was able to do the classes more consistently when my daughter was under a year. Now our schedules don’t allow us to go very often at all. I plan to bring my next baby to Gymboree to have a similar experience! Thank you, Ms. Sherri for offering such a great service in Reno!

Not enough great things can be said about Ms. Sherii and the experience she provides at Gymboree. She puts her whole heart into making every class such a special experience for our kids. She’s cheerful, loving, and an excellent person to lead the class. Ms. Sherii also makes an incredible effort to keep our kids healthy by ensuring an exceptionally clean environment and is also meticulous about hindering the spread of germs from one kid to the next. All in all if you are looking for something super fun and safe, Gymboree is the place to be!

This is long but worth the read to get a total feel for the gym! If you are looking for a fun, CLEAN, happy and uplifting place for your kids, You’ve 1000% found it. Don’t let the false reviews deter you, check it out for yourself. I have been bringing my kids here since 2018.. my son started at 2.5 years old in the play classes then eventually graduated from the preschool program. My daughter has basically grown up at Gymboree. she also started in play classes and is currently in the preschool program! Ms Sherri and Mrs Tara are the kindest people you will ever meet! Who better to have around your kids!? Ms Sherri is the face of the place. You will always be welcomed with a sincere and warm welcome. It’s not a place your will get a cold shoulder or attitude. The play classes with Ms Sherii are so much fun for the kids. She encourages and cheers on every single kid in such a happy way it’s hard for them to not enjoy every aspect of the class. The open gyms are just as fun! AND CLEAN! Then if you continue with the preschool.. which you should! you’ll meet Mrs Tara. The absolute best preschool teacher. So kind and so good with the kids. She knows just how to help with the anything your child may need and does it in the most gentle way possible. The gym itself gets cleaned after every use. EVERY USE. With sanitizer strong enough to kill anything you’re afraid of. The smell is not overwhelming. It’s a clean and fresh smell. Very mild if at all. I do not like strong scents and I don’t even notice. You use hand sanitizer before going in the gym and Ms Sherii is so great at catching snot or spit and cleaning it up right away so no one else touches it. Kids can wear socks or no socks but adults need to have socks. She even provides bathroom sandals so you can easily use the restroom. Make sure you use the sandals so you don’t track bathroom germs into the gym! Gross. The gym gets reset every month which is really exciting for the kids when that happens. Offers the best makeup policy I’ve seen. She’s so flexible and willing to work with you. I’m not sure what the 3 cough rule is that was stated in another review because I’ve never seen that. If you’ve been asked to come back another day you must have really been sick and trying to hide it. I appreciate the no illness policy. My kids have never gotten sick from there. We are going to be sad once my daughter graduates preschool. Thankfully we have awhile. You will not regret coming here. There’s lots of places for kids in Reno but nothing compares to Gymboree!
