I’m extremely disappointed with how I was treated at this YMCA. As a mother of two young children, I expect a family-friendly environment where I can care for my kids without being singled out or shamed. While at the pool supervising my 5-year-old, my 1-year-old became fussy, so I sat at the edge of the pool to breastfeed him — exactly where I needed to be to safely watch my daughter, as required by the YMCA’s own rules. A lifeguard approached me and told me I wasn’t allowed to breastfeed there because of “health hazards,” and that I had to get out of the pool. Let’s be clear: breastfeeding is protected by law in public spaces, including swimming pools. Breast milk is not a health hazard, and I was doing absolutely nothing wrong. I felt publicly embarrassed for trying to meet the basic needs of my baby and keep both of my children safe in a challenging moment. It’s unacceptable that staff are not properly trained on breastfeeding rights. No parent should be put in the position of choosing between comforting their baby and following pool safety rules for their other child. The YMCA should do better. I hope this serves as a wake-up call to provide proper education to staff so that breastfeeding mothers are respected, not harassed or shamed. Families deserve better than this.

Been coming here for years now. It's pretty great. The staff is lovely. I mostly use the fitness area upstairs. It's generally really clean and smells nice. The only negative thing that comes to mind is the limited attachments for the gym area, and how jump ropes and such are tucked away.

We withdrew our children from the Lafayette Family YMCA's OST (Out-of-School-Time) program after multiple troubling incidents involving staff behavior. Our concerns were serious and clearly documented in emails to YMCA leadership, including their Vice President of Operations and CEO. Staff members: Told our young child during a tornado drill that “the tornado is going to eat you,” causing him to cry. Repeatedly used inappropriate language around the children. Mocked our daughter’s name in front of others by calling her “ Fart.” Despite multiple formal complaints, YMCA leadership refused to separate our children from the staff involved or confirm that any corrective action was taken. Instead, we were told staff “collaborate throughout the day” and were encouraged to consider whether the program was the right “fit” for our family — without addressing the misconduct itself. This is not about being “sensitive.” It’s about expecting professional, respectful behavior from adults entrusted with children’s care. We have since filed a formal complaint with the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration. I hope no other family experiences what we went through.

This is the busiest place ever, but with that being said the staff is unbelievably nice !! And had an appointment with physical therapist and always on time ! It’s amazing how well the place keeps it together even being so busy
