★★★★★Jillian TerranaWe love everything about North Shore Day Camp. All 3 of my kids have learned how to swim in their swim program. My older kids enjoy going on trips twice a week and love the over night trips even more. My daughter loves their adventure course and jumping pillow. The staff and directors are always happy and helpful. I highly recommend this camp!
★★★★★Nicole BertoliNorth Shore Day Camp is such a wonderful institution. My two kids are going into their third summer there, and I could not be more pleased with the experience they have had. They love the healthy food options, and the door-to-door transportation is amazing. The campus is enormous and well kept. The counselors and administration are so engaged and truly have the best interest of each child at heart, no matter their relative needs. My kids have made so many lifelong friends there. The camp experience is a worthy investment in your child's future and I could not recommend it more.
★★★★★Alyssa MarderFrom the moment we pulled into the parking lot on my daughter’s first day, I knew we had found something special. North Shore Day Camp is more than just a camp—it’s a second home filled with energy, adventure, and nonstop smiles. My daughter comes home every day bubbling with excitement about the activities she has done, the friends she’s made, and the counselors she adores. Whether it’s swimming, sports or arts and crafts, there’s always something new and fun around the corner. She especially loves the themed “Thank Goodness It’s Monday” events—they make Mondays her favorite day of the week. We’re so grateful to be part of the North Shore family. Our daughter loves camp—and we love watching her thrive there.
★★★★★Jami BergOur family LOVES NSDC!! Each summer gets better and better. Both my kids learned to swim at camp. They love all the specialty programming, you can tell so much thought and planning goes into every minute at camp. The staff is warm and genuine-my kids beg to have their counselors babysit year round. The division leaders communicate regularly with parents. Most importantly my kids are safe, happy and thriving because of their experience at NSDC. Best camp!!!
★★★★★Megan GrellaNorth Shore Day Camp is truly amazing! My kids have been going since 2 years old. The staff are caring and take such great care of the kids, making sure they have a fun, safe, and enriching summer. The variety of activities keeps them engaged, and thanks to the incredible swim program, both of my children have learned to swim here! They look forward to camp all year long, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. I would highly recommend!
