What Parents & Students are Saying
Ocean State Kidz Club is hands down the BEST and most Interactive after school care and summer camp there is! We started our child there this past summer and every single day there was an adventure, activities and weekly field trips. They also take the kids to the Park View pool twice a week in the summer and the kids have the option to take a swim test as well. Every single day of summer camp my child came home raving about how much fun the day was, as well as many new friends being made. I also use them for after school care and they let the kids play outside, do their homework (if you want it done there), and have so many different indoor activities as well. My child is never bored and often asks to stay right up to closing so she doesn’t miss any of the fun! I highly recommend them if you are looking. All of the staff are incredibly friendly and kind. We love OSK!
My daughter attended OSKC this past summer (2022) for the first time. Each day, she was excited and looking forward to attending camp. Weekly rotations of activities were presented, as well as bi-weekly field trips that included boat trips, swimming and amusement activities, just to name a few. She participated in dancing, acting, cooking and arts and crafts regularly.
As an individual with a master’s in education, as well as directing a childcare/school age program in East Greenwich from 2015-2020, I can say I have never seen a program run so efficiently that provides such a wide variety of activities.
The site itself is immaculate and the amount of things that the children are exposed to and/or participate in is like no other. All staff were engaged and completely professional in all ways.
I 100% encourage any family to enroll your child in any OSKC program. My daughter will certainly be returning next summer!
This was the first year my granddaughter attended this camp and she absolutely LOVED it. So much in fact we added two extra weeks, 6 in total. The staff is extraordinary! The facility is clean, bright and has tons of activities. The field trips were amazing (from what my granddaughter tells me she loved the boat cruise and roller skating the most)
I loved how the owner Ms Laura was so welcoming, and professional. I truly got the vibe that this young woman genuinely cared about all her camp kids and loved interacting with them and becoming a mentor in their time at this camp and beyond. Bless her heart as well as her husband’s and her staff. I can’t say enough about this wonderful place. I wish them continued success as our kids need a place like this. a safe, judge free caring, diverse, engaging and fun filled camp. Thank you OSK. Job well done!
