Testimonials

What's all the fuss about?

Discover why Toronto parents can’t stop talking about their children’s growth and joy at Smartiepants.

Our family loves SmartieGym! I started taking my son to classes at the gym when he was 4 months old. The teachers are amazing and the facility is super clean. Now that he is a toddler, we love dropping-in to play. I highly recommend both the classes and drop-in programming.

Emily Abrams

We love SmartieGym! We take our kids to drop-in play often and they have such a great time. We also held our daughter's 3rd birthday party there. The team there did all the heavy lifting, and made it so easy and fun for us and all our daughter's friends. Five big stars!!!

Carlie Fox

SmartieGym is what my 5 year old daughter asks for on a daily basis! This place is incredible. You can spend hours there and you wouldn't even know it. The Gym is clean and organized. My daughter's favourites are the climbing structure with the slide, the ball pit and the roller coaster car ramp. Highly recommended!

Aubrey Cohen

We love SmartieGym! We go to a lot of drop in classes and my 1 year old has so much fun crawling around and playing with all the fun toys! It’s a great place for learning, it’s super clean and the staff are always friendly. Highly recommend going!

Mel Bank
