Best Swimming Activities For Pregnant Women In Boston Near Me

Sharayu Bhat: Good place to visit on weekends with family.

hany Mekhaeil: It very beautiful

Lindsey Bassett: Dont be fooled by the reviews, they're written by parents who think this place is great because their kids had a good time. Kids are easy to please and entertain. This aquarium had no fun interactive exhibits or shows, no sharks, no octopus or squid, no whales, no turtles. The amount of families with young children was insane. Nearly every parent walking around with empty strollers, it was a huge fire hazard, and also so inconsiderate!! Apparently maximum occupancy rules dont apply here cuz this place was packed. Safety doesnt seem to matter to anyone running this place? I will never return.

Pooja Sarda: Nice treats and songs

yoon lee: Stop making up generous review on this museum! No ASTC, AZA? Not worth to spend $$$ for only half hour worth collection. Shut down this aquarium!

Chelsea Worster: Amazing!!!!!!!

Kevy Ellis: This is one of our favorite places to go in Boston. It's great for people of all ages.

Yuliia Dr: A Mesmerizing Journey into the Depths!Visiting the New England Aquarium was an extraordinary experience that left an indelible mark on my soul. The jewel in its crown is undoubtedly the Giant Ocean Tank, an awe-inspiring cylindrical habitat that showcases a vibrant coral reef ecosystem. Beyond the ethereal beauty of the Giant Ocean Tank the New England Aquarium is committed to the playful penguins, the IMAX theater, and the hands-on learning opportunities, every aspect of the aquarium is thoughtfully designed to ignite curiosity, foster connection, and promote environmental stewardship. Whether you're a marine enthusiast, a family seeking an educational adventure, or simply someone who appreciates the wonders of nature, the New England Aquarium is an absolute must-visit. Prepare to embark on a brilliant journey into the depths, where you'll be enthralled by the secrets and splendors of the ocean.

Alicia Souza: Little expensive for tickets tho my only complaint

besaw22: Great last minute spot to visit with just about anyone! Cool fish

Philip Kurle: The New England aquarium is a very nice aquarium for its size. It is reasonably priced. There are quite a lot of interesting exhibits. There is a "Giant Ocean Tank", modeling a Caribbean coral reef, which is two stories high (reportedly 40 ft wide, 23 ft deep, holding 200,000 gallons of water). There is a giant green sea turtle (Myrtle), a couple of loggerhead turtles (that I wasn't able to see), eagle rays (I think), barracuda, moray eels, and reportedly about a thousand various fish. There is a large penguin exhibit that is just adjacent to the Giant Ocean Tank. It has these cool rockhopper penguins, as well as African penguins. There is also an Atlantic harbor seal exhibit. There wasn't too much action going on while I was there. There is a touch tank with sharks and rays (non-aggressive ones). I am only giving it 4 stars just because it doesn't quite equal up to a couple of other aquaria, such as the Seattle aquarium or the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. But it is still well worth the visit and the $34 entrance fee. It is also adjacent to the Simons theater where we also watched a big screen movie about cephalopods. We spent about 2 hours at the aquarium and about another hour at the Simons theater. Time well spent in Boston.

Annica Dennison: The Aquarium is always a favorite place to go over the years w my kids and myself as a kid for the tank wind winding ramp, the penquins and the seals of course have always been favorites. I do wish there was more to see, but still a great spot. Doing a whale watch , harbor cruise, Duck Tour ,watching a show or doing any of the activities while there is definitely recommend of you want to make a day out of it. Although I do enjoy strolling around the tank w my youngest and that's enough for me.

Diane S: Price wasn't bad for adults but a little high for kids! Very clean, and kids loved it!

Tata Siriphan: We had so much fun!! Thank you for the memories...

Mrs. Nicole Gettridge: Loved it! 🏽

Simon Landsberg: This was a very family-friendly place with many wonderful and exotic looking creatures in their tanks.Petting the sting ray was interesting/fun too.

Max Coleman: $39 for an hour worth of things to see! Building looks huge but in reality it’s very small. We’re from Colorado and thought the Boston aquarium would blow Denver’s out of the water, nope. If you’re in Denver swing by a real aquarium

Jacqueline L: My family has been coming to Little Flippers since 2017, and we have had positive experiences with the staff, facility, and the swim education received. My children have grown confident in the water, are becoming increasingly proficient with their skills, and eagerly look forward to their lessons each week. The support of the staff sets Little Flippers apart. Being able to get to know our instructors over the past six years and see my children develop relationships with them is special! These instructors have become role models to them. The continuity of having the same instructors session after session is of utmost importance to us! My children speak highly of Mr. Nate, Ms. Kassie, and Mr. John. They have taken the time to get to know my children and family. In particular, Mr. Nate supported one of my children through a fracture injury and helped him to overcome new mobility fears in the water. We were able to safely get past the injury and recovery period with his support, modifications, patience and positive reinforcement. It made all the difference to my kiddo!

Greg Kamstra: My daughter has been coming for about a year and a half and been through a bunch of the levels. We’ve had a fantastic experience. The staff has all been great. She’s really learned a ton and also has a lot of fun / has always really looked forward to coming. Honestly no complaints.

Gregory Malecha: Seems like a pretty good place for kids to learn to swim.

Colleen O'Connell: Clean, friendly staff, well organized, knowledgeable

Mr. Benjamin Pearce: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Value

Grace J: If you can get through their hectic admins, It’s good. Small ratios and great facilities, but the admin part is not very well organized. Waitlists are poorly managed and communications are less than ideal. If you have questions, you can’t get anyone beyond front desk folks who doesn’t have enough knowledge to help. People (or a person) who are/is responsible is almost impossible to reach to get resolutions. I mean, i know they are expanding with new gymnastics classes and preschools, but I want something more professional point of contacts and fair treatments.Talked with the front desk and they aren’t giving out the owner phone number

Mike Plum: The instruction there is great. Small class sizes make for faster progress due to more individualized attention. Glad we found Little Flippers!

Dom A: My daughter loved learning from the instructors here. Definitely recommend!

Jun Yang: Nice designed place. Well structured.

Lyndsae Brito: We love little flippers and have been going there for 4 years now.

Christina Cook: I am IMPRESSED to say the least. My children have been attending for only two weeks but I will absolutely be staying here and recommending to everyone. Not only is the facility extremely clean, but the level of education and professionalism displayed by all the staff is unparalleled. Mr Jack who instructed my daughter and Mr John (I believe was his name so sorry if I got it wrong) were so beyond patient and understanding to my daughter who didn’t want to fully participate. They showed absolutely no signs of frustration with her and assured me after that continuing with the program would not be a burden to them as they would work with her. You can tell that everyone at this facility truly cares about these kids and their craft. Having worked in customer service for a long time I am very impressed and thankful to see a business operate at such a high standard.

Adilson Bernardo Dos Santos Santos: Very good

Adam Santamaria: awesome place for the kids to learn how to swim and not be afraid of the water. Highly recommended.

The6 Fam: Friendly and helpful instructors for the kids. Also great measures taken to ensure social distancing and sanitised surfaces.

Peroni's Jewelry: My daughter has been coming here for over 3 years, i saw improvements on the first month! Couldn't recommend a better place! The best friendly staff and this place is always perfectly cleaned!

Alex Baranov: Just visited it first time. My 5.5 yo daughter lived it!

Joanna Sessa: Such a wonderful swim school. The staff is so caring, talented and patient. They are following all guidelines. It is very clean. I see them wiping all surfaces, railings etc that anyone may touch. Temperature checks, masks and face shields for instructors in the water. Only 2 kids per class. They are doing a fantastic job. I highly recommend them!

Maurice Costello: It was a bit tough for my 2 year old getting used to everyone with face sheilds but she felt better after a few minutes getting used to it. we got her ready in the car but had time to get through the facility and time to change her. Staff did a good job making everyone comfortable. I go with my girl to class because of her age but I would be comfortable dropping off and picking up as well they are well staffed and have clearly made their best effort to streamline the experience from entry to exit and I feel good about the experience under the circumstances.

Sterling Archer: Great swim classes for infants and kids.Free classes for infants up to 6 months (based on class availability) were amazing for first fundamentals and from there classes are worth the cost by far. The curriculum and method for teaching really seems to do the job.The facility is very nice, clean and plenty of equipment: swim toys, floaties and assisting devices, etc...The viewing area for those not in the pool has plenty of seating that looks through a glass wall that spans the entire length of the pool.There are plenty of changing areas for infants, bench changing areas for toddlers and younger kids and changing rooms with doors for families.Open cubbies and lockers are available for storage.Teachers and staff are friendly and professional, the whole school seems very well managed.

Rina Stark: Great team and teachers, family friendly. Clean changing room / showers. If they could sell coffee, would be even better !

Sami Bleau: My daughter started at 6 months old and is now 2 years old ad in class by herself and thriving! Instructors are kind and caring but also focus on safety. So happy with our classes!

E: My son has been going to little flippers for over a year now. We’ve had a wonderful experience so far. The instructors, (especially Mary!) have been awesome. I truly feel my son has improved his water and swim skills thanks to little flippers!

Kathleen Deschamps: My daughter was 4 years old when she took classes at Little Flippers. She loved water and felt very confident in the water. She was ok with the teacher until one day it was a substitute. As she was practicing swimming on her back and flipping back on her belly, she went under and the substitute teacher didn't see her right away. He was paying attention to the other kids on the platform. After few seconds he saw her and pulled her....that was enough for her to think she was drowning. She started to cry and was so scared. From that time. until now 2 years later, she is still terrified of water. When we talk about putting her in swimming lessons she is crying and is genuinely scared of drowning.Be aware that teachers can have substitute teacher relatively often and no communication in between teachers exist, therefore if your child is struggling for a particular activity (eg swimming on his back) the substitute won't know anf may not be as attentive to your child needs.Little flippers was supposed to teach my kid to swim, be safe in the water and have fun but it did the exact OPPOSITE!!!If you are hesitating between swimming schools don't make the mistake of choosing Little flippers...

Adam Sinkus: Great program.

James Domestico: We have been attending Little Flippers for almost 7 years now and could not be happier with the teaching and overall welcoming atmosphere. Our daughter is 7 and has turned into quite the swimmer with our 5 year old not far behind. They teach water safety first, such as what to do when you fall in and safely getting out of the water. Which is a great skill to have as a little person that may not be a strong swimmer. We recommend these classes for all families that want their children to learn how to swim safely.

Catrina Kalil: Been taking my son here since he was 3 months old and we stopped lessons here to move out of state but the best school in MA i can say. Lessons are very well planned and was fun for my son. All the teachers are awesome and well trained! He learned fast to love the water and to do activities in the water for his age. The smile and excitement on his face every time he sees a pool shows how well classes helped him learn while bringing out the love of swimming already at such a young age! Thank you Little Flippers School ! We will miss you! Hope i can find an amazing swimming school like you guys are with such a positive impact on my son like you guys were at the new state im moving to so my son can continue growing in skills!!

Geraldine G Studio: Took my 3 month old to her first class and we both loved it!!Staff is very friendly and professional, my baby loves her instructor Miss Beth. The installations are are clean and well kept.

Raghu K: Staff is friendly. My son loves this place and picked up swimming after joining here . I would definitely recommend this place .

Karin: I’ve been sending my children to Little Flippers for 4 years and only have exceptional experiences there. When it comes to enrolling in a class, making up a class, getting feedback - they excel in communication in all areas.Little Flippers sets an example across all industries on how to treat customers for optimal experiences. They truly make it a seemless process.

SummerBreeze 21: I love it here! The instructor's are so great and they work with each child my baby had such a fear of water and now he loves it ! The facility is clean and well maintained. The staff are friendly and the swim instructors are amazing. My baby started at 9 months and he will be 3 in September they have taught him to be comfortable around water and not to be panicked or have fear its so great . We drive all the way from Marlborough to attend classes . The classes are very reasonable especially if you have more than 1 child attending. So if you want your child to learn to swim and be comfortable around water plus have a great time doing it lol this is definitely the place to try !! 🏊🏼‍♀️🐬🏊🏼‍♀️

Caroline Monteles: This place is horrible! I went in because I wanted to take my 5 month old into a class , and the woman asked if I signed up and I asked if they were going to charge me because I wanted to only take my son to one class . I told her I could sign up but would they charge me? She didn’t know the answer , I asked if I could just try out this one class one time or even pay a one time fee for the class because I have a week off and I wouldn’t be able to come the other days if I signed up. She said she didn’t know and when I asked “well can u ask someone” She completely ignored me. I just walked out because the customer service is HORRIBLE! Never coming here again

nati Gomez: Excellent place

B T: We've been taking our son here for a few months, and it's absolutely fantastic. The instructors we've had do a great job of getting the kids comfortable with dunking their heads underwater and also teaching them how to get to the edge of the pool and move along the edge. Our son was 15 months old when he started the lessons, and he's developed a real love for the water, thanks to the Little Flippers school. I highly recommend the school, they do a great job.

MM: Great school with great teachers and reasonable pricing

Priyanka Joshi: Joined their fall 2016 session, every class my kid just did the same thing (walking in pool and jumping) seriously.. Instructors never listen to feedbacks .. We told them multiple times that he can't jump in water and panicks but to no use.. AlsoThey have worst make up policy .. If Ur kid gets sick and u miss a class .. You can't get make up class because you didn't predict the kid getting sick and calling before the class.. They are expensive and Can't believe I paid them for this terrible service. Not again!

DNA A: Lots of programs for various age groups and timings are numerous

Kailee Hart: Very cute! Uses uv filtration so there's no harsh chemicals

Raymi Rodriguez: We had my daughter's 8th Birthday Party there a couple of weeks ago and they had a great time! They had a life guard and 2 instructors in the water with the kids at all times which was great. The kids had a great time!

Matt Crawford: My three year old is on his second season of lessons here. He has gone from being afraid of the water to swimming on his own for short distances and not being able to get enough - he literally jumps for joy when we tell him today is swim practice. The quality of the instructors has been great and the pool and surrounding areas are kept very clean and bright. Having taught swim lessons once myself, I recognize and appreciate the quality of work and methods they are using. I like this place so much I have recommended it to friends with kids who live an unrealistic distance away. All the staff has been helpful and I really like the way the online system allows you to hear from the teachers directly about your kid's progress. We've had nothing but pleasant experiences here.

Scot Mascioli: Great atmosphere and history. Definitely a bucket list stop. Fun times!

Jack Landis: Toured this place. Crazy awesome! Wish I’d gotten to see the Red Sox play though.

David Bradley: A great ball field and iconic Boston must see spot. Can't wait to catch another game and event. the last one was Taco's and tequila with a wicked cool hat lol and the Sox won.

A. D.: Awesome seats and the staff was so friendly and helpful

Jason Johnson: Great ballpark and the seats were stellar!

Ryan Bishop: Went during the early spring on a weekday so it wasn't crazy. Park was clean, bathrooms were clean and smelled like mango. Food and drinks cost a lot. Souvenirs cost about the same in most other shops. Great experience.

Megan C: Great experience, great environment

Gerald Shultz: Great to see a game with Red Sox homers and a win!

Stacie Hines: We had a great time visiting Fenway. What a fun atmosphere with an energetic crowd

Terrence Irving: This probably isn't the type of review you were expecting, but here goes:I hate baseball. Always have. But as a wedding photographer, I love Fenway. One of my Boston couples wanted to do their engagement session in this neighborhood and we walked right past stadium.Not only did we take some awesome pictures on a game day, but one of the Fenway staff was outside and held one or two cars for us as we took pictures while crossing the street (in a crosswalk, of course).For how nice that person was alone, I'll give Fenway Park five stars. If you like baseball and live in New England, then go there!

Carmen Laffey: How would one not enjoy touring the oldest baseball park. Great tour guide, professional and humorous.

Waseem Kawaf: Great spot and scenic Brook.

Maria Valeckova: Vadilo mi ,ze toalety su v zime zatvorenePlayground: Ihrisko vhodne pre vsetky detiRestrooms: Toalety zatvoreneDog-friendliness: Pre psikov je to rajPicnic area: Da sa aj piknikovat

Laurel Showstack: So much fun for our 5 year old. Lots of challenging activities.Right next to a fairly busy road.

Peter Ph: Fun kiddie park with a large grass area adjacent.

C Saini: Awesome place for little ones to play and it was clean.

oo-: Cute playground

Saurav Majumdar: Nice place for a walk, still out just to enjoy the weather on a sunny day. Kids' playground for families with kids. Tables to organize small picnics or gatherings. Water fountain for children. Probably closed due to the cold weather coming up. We visit every opportunity possible or if we run out of new parks to explore on the weekends.

Pratima Pathak: I love the color of the play ground here. There are plenty of options. The spray deck is unique with stones. And then it has plenty of walk area at the back. The best part is the benches under the shade that provides picnic or party spots. Lots of birthday celebrations were going on there. I hate that restrooms are mostly closed there.

Delia Warren: Playground: One of my favourite playgrounds in the region. Modern and unique, and suited to toddlers and older children. Public restrooms are often closed.Picnic area: Large and covered. Often hosts children's parties

Natalia: Not for big kids. Good for walking around.

Mr CST: Only thing that should be added there....Charcoal grills..but I understand why there are none.Playground: Playground state of the art great climbing I have a special needs son that loves going herePicnic area: Good picnic tables and some shade then there's picnic tables that have no shade awesome place first come first serve with the picnic tables

Iago Silva: Playground: Otimo lugar para as criançasRestrooms: Sim muito bomPicnic area: Sim pode fazer piquenique

Jacki C: Great place for kids buts parking is horrible not enough street parking and you have to drive up and down up and down over and over until a spot becomes available at

Brent George: Super fun little spot to let the kiddos burn off some of that energy. It felt very safe and lots of shade for some picnic action and/or monitoring the little ones while staying cool.

Stan Greenbaum: Great playground for kids under 10. We had a birthday party there on Saturday and the kids had a great time. Terrific to have such a facility nearby.

Lorilee Bonnette: Beware rocks are slippery but the kids looooved this place! Great for all ages. Parking was easy.

Andrea Dueñas: Great place

Kristen Almonte: Nice place. Only issue was parking. Be prepared to walk up some steep hills with your children if you cannot find street parking.

Jeffrey Schriesheim: Very nice playground for toddlers and young kids. The spray deck is particularly nice. Plenty of shade and space. Doesn't feel to crowded most times.

Lisa D: Busy, but great splash pad and playground. Good mix of sun and shade. Lots of picnic tables. The rocks are amazing for climbing and playing in the water. The playground structures are modern and very creative.

Andrea Laizer: Exactly what I was looking for in a day spa experience today. Everyone was very warm and welcoming. Cozy lounge area to sip tea or flavored water. I had the coconut brush/massage with John. John was fantastic. He did such a great job tailoring the massage to my specific needs. Exceeded my expectations. Thank you for a lovely afternoon!

Blandhine Christalin: Got a facial a little over a month ago and my face has not looked this good in years! Diaa, did an amazing job and talked me through everything she was doing. She gave great recommendations and cannot wait to book another signature hydrafacial with her!

Polina Lazareva: I was trying to see how much their Couples Massage is because it is listed on their website, however, after being forced to create an account, it seems they do not offer such service.

Lindsay Tavarozzi: My absolute favorite spa

Jen KM: I received a wonderful facial from Maria. She was kind, knowable and caring

Toni: I haven't had any other service since quarantine except pedicures. It's the way I treat and honor my feet every couple of months. Thuy is the sweetest, most kind woman and the main reason I continue to go back. She and all the ladies at the front desk are always so friendly -- I love that. It's a luxury spa with a "down home" feel because of the friendly demeanor-- that's a great thing that you don't get in most luxury spas!!!

Kayla Renfro: Had an incredible CBD massage with Nicole! The facilities and amenities are clean and well stocked. The only thing was that the steam room was out of service, but everything else was amazing!

Kara O'Hearn: Have been going here for years and have had pretty enjoyable experiences but just had a massage last week with Jennifer and it was incredible! First time I truly felt like I got my money's worth. Will definitely go back for her!

Dolphia Arnstein: Here is how it went - I pressed the elevator button, and the door opened to their floor. The receptionist took my coat and checked me in. I got changed, and my treatment started with exfoliation, a soothing shower, and a massage.My overall experience was enjoyable and soothing. I needed to relax, and the therapy provided me that along with skin treatments - which my body needed (pandemic + kid).I plan to return again in 2 months. This is something 100 percent worth splurging in.

elizabeth tillemans: The best, holistic, personalized approach to skincare I’ve ever experienced. I highly recommend Bella Sante. I live in New York but my parents are here in Boston and I always look to book an appointment when I’m in town. I haven’t found a better facial anywhere else. I had a hydro facial with Kriztina Mitchell just this past weekend and she was fantastic. She asked about my skincare routine and concerns and I told her I was dealing with skin inflammation due to some stomach issues. This was a perfect match given her expertise in health and nutrition. We spoke about supplements, foods and holistic self care to calm stress, inflammation and flare ups. She is passionate about science and clinical result based on ingredients- not brands. I felt she was incredibly well informed and unbiased. She gave me so many insights and recommendations to help me beyond the day’s treatment. However the facial of course was incredible. Leaves me skins, radiant, glowing and glassy for weeks. If you’re looking for a truly indulgent experience with personalized care to last you long term, I’d suggest booking an appointment at Bella Sante. Your skin and health will thank you!

E SK: I have been a loyal client of this spa over the years, but in the past two months have had two terrible experiences, back to back, courtesy of the incredibly rude staff at the front desk, in two different locations. Both were shockingly discourteous and pretentious. I will never spend a dime here again, and instead will happily spend my money where it is appreciated. Plenty of amazing options elsewhere.

Christina Bowman: Another amazing experience this past weekend! I had an 80 min hydro facial with dermaplaning and my skin felt so amazing afterwards. I highly recommend asking for the Esthician, Diaa, as she’s extremely intelligent and personalized your treatment to your skin. Not only was she a pleasure to talk to, but she also really gets to know you and your skin care routine - inside and out. From gut health to clean beauty products, Diaa is SO knowledgeable about it all! I really enjoyed my facial and making a new friend along the way. Thank you, Diaa!

Naomi Orenstein: I would highly recommend a facial with Diaa at the Newbury street location! I have been a client of Diaa for years (she gives the best waxes in Boston) and she recently recommended that I get a hydrafacial after I told her my skin has been very dry and breaking out. I got my first hydrafacial with her yesterday and it was amazing! My skin looks and feels great! I can’t wait to go back and get another facial with her! She is the sweetest person and very knowledgeable about skin. I would highly recommend booking an apt with Diaa because you will leave happy & get AMAZING results!

Wenny Lin: Real bad experience!! When I called to book the service, I intended to book the 80mins pore cleaning one but receptor didn’t clarify there was a 50mins one or confirm my preference. Because of unexpected meetings at work, I was 15mins late. However, it was not until I lay down that they told me my late time is counting towards my entire service time, which means I only got a service of around 25 mins. No one told me about that when I booked or when they called to confirm whether I was coming or not. They should have made all clear to the customers. Will never come again. My technician is pretty nice and professional though.

Mary Ellen Player: Vanessa is amazing.

Ash C.: I didn't have a great experience here. As someone else mentioned, the steam room was "out of service" during my visit. The spa was crowded and noisy, and the area to wait for the massage was shared by everyone and not separated from the front desk, so it felt frantic, lots of talking/laughing, phones ringing, etc.The massage room was also very small and it felt claustrophobic. It was not quiet, either. I could hear lots of noises from other guests and banging sounds. Also, my massage therapist was very nice, but she had a terrible cough and kept sniffing and was not wearing a mask during my treatment, which freaked me out. I couldn't fully enjoy my massage. I won't be back.

Kristeena Hassman: This is my 3rd time at belle sante this year. Never once has their steam room worked, it’s always “closed for maintenance”. This is also the only amenity they offer at the salon with your service so for it to be broken for over a year is just unacceptable (it was obviously closed during Covid too so it’s been at least 2 years) especially as their prices for services have raised. Truthfully if you are looking for a spa that offers great service and amenities go down the street to G2O spa. This place just isn’t worth it.

Schnelle Shelby: Highly recommend Diaa for your waxing services. She is quick and as gentle as possible.

Dr. Abdul Rahman Al-ajmi: not clean

Barbara Hillman: Soooo I went in for the first time just yesterday 5/31/22 A Mothers Day gift from my son located in the (BOSTON LOCATION) for a 50 minute relaxation massage and a 25 minute foot therapy with NICOLE firstly id like to commend the staff for such a clean and refreshing ambiance you can see a dustball on the floor that is how well kept and clean bella sante is andd it smelled soo fresh the minute i stepped off the elevator.. that said lets get to the meat and potatoes.... let me tell u something NICOLEEEEE was the best i have ever had her hands worked amazingly threw the massage she was sure to focus on the proper areas needed for me. You know for sure that this is NICOLES passion she loves what she does it shows and feels in her work. when she completed my massage i was so relaxxxxed the rest of the day and believe it or not i have noooooo more pain in my body my body feels AMAZINGGGGG she worked out all the crooks and cranys out of me this is exactly what i needed.. i will return at least twice a month and see this young lady... if I could give 10 STARS i would. Thank You BELLA SANTE for an amazing experience and excellent staff... see you next month always remember YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR at BELLA SANTE

Caroline Meeks: friendly affordable place to learn to sail

Eric Li: Staff is very friendly. They got a lot of Saul boats and boats to try. Also very friendly with beginners

Lorenc Liko: Πρώτη φορά που δοκιμάσαμε να κάνουμε κανόε καγιάκ και περάσαμε υπέροχα. Όλες οι βάρκες ήταν δυστυχώς βρεγμένες πριν καν την χρησιμοποιήσουμε.

Sweet Kitty: I went sailing with friends at community boating many times, always had a good time there.The staff were very friendly and helpful.. They always looked happy. It made me happy about my sailing.The boats and sails were clean and always in good conditions.The life jackets may not very clean, but better than what availability at other sailing/boating places.When sailing in the river, wind blows by and view is so beautiful. It was always a joyful experience.

Luke Heine: Absolutely rockstar place. Maybe the most affordable place to learn how to sail in the US. Super accessible and amazing community

Philipp Schneider: A really easy going place for learning how to sail

John Figueiredo: Beautiful location

behrang ghabchi: Best experience ever in Boston🤩💯👌🏻

Mikhail Naumov: Incredible for the price, $400 upfront for a full summer of kayaking, windsurfing and sailing.All the classes are included/free except for the advanced racing class!

joy sun: I ran past this place on the Esplanade for years while living in Boston. I thought since I didn’t sail, this place didn’t apply to me. Walked in one day and learned that for $400 a year, they’ll teach you how to sail and let you rent equipment for free! Just sailed for the first time today and really looking forward to getting better with more lessons!

Samantha Elghanayan: Great kayaking

Frank: Great place to learn sailing and windsurfing. Also, the taste of the water is not too bad .

Michael Doyle: What an experience. I hadn't sailed for 30 years. The woman up front assured me it would be fine and they would tow me in if I had difficulties. The Mercury is a nice stable sailboat and the person setting it up gave me a crash course on the rigging. One of life's great experiences is sailing on the Charles River in Boston. Get the jib, especially if you have a passenger that wants to stay involved. No problems getting in our out of the docks. HINT: on the verbal test, when they ask what to do when the boat is getting ready to capsize, "release the mainsail".

James Kassabian: If you're looking to sail and you're from out of town, look elsewhere. Nonmembers are not allowed to rent sailboats in heavy winds/red flag - ideally when qualified sailors would actually want to be out there. No exceptions made and staff didn't bother to mention that it was a red flag until 30 minutes after asking them about parking in the area. Disappointing.

Kristine Murray: We were able to rent a 19’ sailboat for 4 adults and enjoy an afternoon on the Charles river.

Alexander Cohen: Excellent way to start sailing! Staff is friendly and supportive. Membership is also an unbeatable value!

Edbert Cheng: I enjoy the Kayak service, but why are the folks who work on helping ppl into kayaks seem like they hate their job? Where are their manners? Sometimes there is staff, other times there isn’t, or people are just rude. Maybe the paid sailing courses are better? Please train your staff to be courteous and not “throw” boats around. Staff in New York are nicer than here, because I used to work at a boathouse there. I will find a rival kayak service. Please train your staff.

Miguel de Icaza: Great place to learn to sail! Perfect!

John Haxx: By far the best membership anything that exists in Boston. $400 gets you a whole year of sailing, kayaking, paddle boards or wind surfing, and classes to get you going. The volunteers are all generally wonderful and getting your sailing ratings is easy and straight forward. Couldn't be happier to be a member.

9507 Ashmont: Beautiful view

Pooja Rathod: Just awesome. All nurses are very helpful. My dr name is dr.kristen Wright. She is also very good by his profession. They are understand all the situations and than advice us. Its surgery center is Waltham and they treat very good. Its acupuncture center is also at Waltham and it is good also.

Erin Zagadailov: Every fertility journey is unique. From the beginning, Dr.Glatstein gave us the confidence and sense of calmness we needed throughout the process. Through it all, Dr. Glastein was there for us and assuring us that we would have success! Failing a fresh embryo transfer after retrieval, we had success upon our first frozen embryo transfer and are now roughly 33 weeks pregnant! Dr. Glatstein is a passionate, patient, and kind caregiver. We were so thankful to have him on our side. Don't wait to make an appointment... go see them now!

rebecca pizzuti: If you are an older couple don’t waste too much time here. Was told after four cycles to use a donor egg. Thank god we didn’t listen to the physician we saw at RSC in Providence. Fertility solutions looked outside of the box and individualized a protocol based on what didn’t work. Am a mother today because of them.

sam su: Ask your medical records and verify it.I called them and request rectification of errors in my medical records, which they did not consider.....however I would appreciate if they correct in page 3 of my IVF report:Social Hx: uncertain if married to current partner.To:Social Hx: Always been MARRIED to the current partner!

Malory OBrien: From the moment we met Dr. Pauli and his team, we knew whatever the outcome of our journey, we would be well cared for. The compassion everyone here has for their patients is undeniable- this is one of the only Dr.'s offices where I know I will receive a warm and genuine voice on the other end of the phone for scheduling, nurse calls, etc. We never felt rushed into making any decisions, and their ability to teach us about the IVF process along the way was invaluable, which was a major contributing factor to our success. This team was a blessing to find, and we now have two healthy, beautiful babies because of their care.

Melissa Santos: IVF New England staff were so helpful and so kind especially when I needed it the most. The facility and treatments are best of the best. The staff felt like family! We will be forever grateful to them for giving us our twins!

Yessie T: I love the staff and the facility! I felt welcomed and at ease from the very first day. I'm so glad I took this leap because now I have an amazing 18 month old. Thank you IVF new England

Kristen Musick: IVF New England couldn't have been a better place for us to go on this journey. The doctors and staff were amazing, easy to talk to, explained things clearly and thoroughly and were very accessible. We would definitely go back to this practice again. Thank you IVF New England for all the amazing work you do!

Kimberlee Nutter: IVF NEW ENGLAND was so wonderful to work with. The staff are so caring and although our journey was a long one we feel so blessed to have had the support and care that we did. Our daughter is almost 20 months and we wouldn't have her without IVF New England.

Lynn Fletcher: Our experiences with IVF New England have been absolutely amazing. As soon as our process started we were greeted with open arms, smiles, and hope. We worked with Dr. Glatsteins crew, phlebotomists, and ultrasound techs for a lengthy time before a successful pregnancy. Everybody was sincere, heartfelt, yet professional and extremely knowledgeable. The secretarial staffing have been welcoming and always check in to keep you up to date with necessary clerical needs to make your visit as quick and smooth as possible. We have had an excellent experience with them so far and plan to continue to use them in the future!

Megan Coughlin: We had an amazing experience with Dr. Pauli and the entire Boston IVF staff! They answered all of our questions and gave us hope that we would be able to have a biological child of our own. We were fortunate enough to conceive our son William on our first fresh IVF cycle. He brings us so much joy. We are forever grateful to Boston IVF for bringing him into our lives!

Nadya S: My experience was way beyond the best! It was a tiring journey but it was definitely worthy. The staff was nice and extremely helpful! Thank you!!!

Jose Lugo: We thank NE IVF for everything they did and assisting us with our baby boy!

Kaitlyn Amaral: Boston IVF/ IVF NE is amazing! They helped us to conceive our first child and we are currently working with them again for our second. Everyone we have contacted with from the nurses, doctors, techs have been wonderful. They make an emotional difficult time a bit less stressful, as they are compassionate and understanding.

Stacey Felix: I had a very positive experience with IVF New England, Dr. Wright was knowledgeable and her staff friendly and patient with all my questions and inquiries. The IVF process can be an emotional, intimidating time but the staff at IVF New England made the process bearable and I now have beautiful daughter thanks to them.

Jen Pinheiro: Wonderful experience! Very helpful staff who explained everything to us every step of the way ! They helped us bring our little girl into the world & we are forever greatful for that!

Lidia Lidia: Scammers! We were deceived. Do not believe a single word from a doctor or nurse! They will tell you about your insurance company in the smallest detail. They will provide you with services even without taking care of whether your insurance company covers these costs. They will tell you that everything is settled and you do not worry about anything. The only thing I do not understand is if the insurance does not cover certain expenses, so why do they continue to provide services and then kick money out of people? I can not talk to anyone for six months. When I call constantly answers the answering machine. And if someone talks to me, then only those people who do not have any idea about the situation that has occurred. Be careful and do not expect that the doctor will really help you. Prepare as you should for a meeting with your doctor and take a lawyer and a dictaphone with you. Because then there will be no one to protect you. And who knows how much you will be provided with services without the knowledge of the insurance company. After all, you will be strongly persuaded that they have agreed on everything for you. And then they will tell you that it's all your fault. I'm not a professional, I believe doctors. The oath of the hypocrite and so on. But as for me it is fraud.

Christina Laughlin: I had my eggs harvested at age 38 just to be safe.I have 22 eggs stored and frozen.I finally met an amazing man, got married and am trying to conceive the old fashioned way.It's nice to know I have a backup plan.Update: Unfortunately I had a false sense of security. Only one embryo made it to day 5 with a pgd result of normal. I did not get pregnant through IVF New England. I had another subsequent for harvests and on my transfer did have a successful pregnancy at age 42.

Joel McCarthy: I'm very surprised to read some of the negative comments about RSC (now IVF New England). We had a great experience with Dr. Pang and the rest of the staff - Linda, Paula, Ann, etc. I agree that they may be very serious sometimes and not always "warm and fuzzy"...but they are doing serious work and I always felt they were honest with us and gave us all the information we needed to make the best decisions (even if the information was sad and hard for us to hear)...they don't sugarcoat things - which we appreciated. We welcomed our beautiful son into the world in October, 2015. Couldn't be happier with IVF New England. We will be using them again for baby 2.

Asus a: Although this center statically has performed a high number of IVF, but for the reason below we decided to change the facility:- Request a copy of your record and verify the information after your diagnostic. Be sure that there was no misunderstanding.- IVF New England does not perform such an important operation in a Hospital- The calls are answered by answering machine and you need to leave a call back number. Unfortunately, this is commune in other facilities as well.- We really appreciated our Doctor. Despite her online reviews mentioning a rude attitude, she was serious and determined and I felt I can trust her when she performed my Sonhysterogram.- We did NOT found the staff sufficiently knowledgeable:a) The conversation on the phone was miss report when we requested the medical record.b) The laboratory tests which we informed that we have already performed one month before, was repeated unnecessarily.a) The phlebotomist kept the tourniquet tightened during the whole process of making ready the tubes and collecting blood around 7 min. (max should be 1-2 min).b) The nurse schedules a CBC test one day after I used 1 gram Antibiotic! (Antibiotic has effect on the count of your white blood cells)These are little errors and we have experienced such errors in lots of others facilities. As a patient I write this review in order to help other patients and medical facilities reduce human error maybe by strict training and monitoring or other solutions to be find.

Eng Aaron-Achson: This is a must see! Try to join a guided tour with a docent right from the beginning of the museum (see photo of docent below). I caught the last part the guided tour and he was excellent! There was so much to learn. The greeters at the information desk were very helpful and friendly. On the way out I told them I was vacationing and asked them for suggestions on what to do. They gave me a list of places to visit and their suggestions were all winners! After the visit you can go down by the water and enjoy a nice walk on the walking path.

Marc St-Amour: Wonderfull to visit on a rainy day, but plan your transport in advance, getting a taxi from downtown to the library is easy enough but heading back is a long wait as there are no waiting taxi and some of the local companies will not come and pick you up.

Kevin Eads: One of the nicest presidential museums I’ve visited

William Wu: Wonderful place to visit.

T M: Definitely worth a stop. Also a beautiful location. Regardless of your political views, you can't help but respect the president and administration that saved North America during the Cuban Missile Crisis, put mankind on the moon, and so much more. He was a president to every nation.

bob m: So much to learn here about President Kennedy. Very well laid out and enjoyable. I learned a few things today and saw some neat artifacts. Definitely worth the trip. Eat before you go because there is not much here. There is a display about the kids that is kinda neat, and of course an area dedicated to Jackie. Also his space program dedication is displayed.

Tyler Niccum: Excellent Library!

S Saracco: Wonderful tribute for an inspiring leader

John Lauder: An exceptional experience. JFK was a truly great man. How did a Trump arise from such a great president?

Oleksandr Ostashko: Great!

Michele Smith: This is a great museum and tribute to JFK! I really enjoyed seeing the different artifacts and seeing the different sides to both Jack and Jackie!

Felix Andino: Beautiful and big place

Magali Bertolazzi Vezzaro: Accueil très agréable qui nous prépare à accueillir ce plongeon dans l histoire des USA.C est un lieu ressource, au sein duquel chacun trouvera son chemin intérieur.

Mary Busek-Riley: JFK was amazing during his short life. He did so much for this country that most would not even know without visiting this museum. There are a few short movies and videos throughout that help explain and show his life. Military enter free.

Debra Dabbs: Enjoyed all displays and videos. Had forgotten many things. Very good time

Lincoln Green: Great place with a well presented museum

Photographia 56: Good place to visit to learn about the life of John F Kennedy

Trevor O Sullivan: Incredible. Tells the story of a charming and articulate and caring man. Sections for his brother Bobby and wife Jackie were also superb. Shows all traits of the man from President to father to son.

Ian Davis: I took these photos on a Sunday when the library is closed. Beautifully designed building by the great I.M. Pei. Despite the buildings beauty I will be boycotting the library until the US government releases all unclassified intel about the JFK assassination. The magic bullet theory is an entirely baseless explanation and it is abundantly clear our government is hiding something. Hopefully one day the truth will come out and I can give the library a proper visit and I can give it a better rating

Christine McGagh: I love Eli’s and Fit4mom. I started stroller strides when my oldest (now 11) was about 2 and I had a brand new baby. Those were some tough times and I needed those moms who were going through the same things to bond with and share experiences and stories. Not only did I get in shape with her amazing workouts and feel great about myself again, but we entertained the littles while doing it! The best part was I met some lifelong friends and made so many unforgettable memories with the other moms and their kiddos too! When my 3rd baby got too old to sit still in the stroller, I joined body back at night for some me time. Again, I had this village of fabulous women supporting me and for the 3rd time I was getting my body back in shape. I highly recommend Elis Mimmo and Fit4mom Northshore.

Kari Heggie: Stroller Strides is the only way I can exercise now I'm a mother! But it's also my favorite way to exercise while I spend time with my sons and chat with other moms. Elis the owner is not only an amazing instructor but also a wonderful person who has made me feel like part of the Fit4Mom family since my first work out.

Corinne Prigo: Fit4mom is more than just a wonderful way to stay active as a mom. I found a community that has been so encouraging and accepting in this group. I can’t speak highly enough about Elis and all of the instructors! If you are a new mom, I beg you to try a class. You will not be disappointed!

Gwen Blois: Fit for mom is a great class for new moms. You exercise while entertaining your baby. I started going to fit for mom about 5 years ago and have gone with all 3 of my grandchildren. Now they are in school I’m still going to fit for mom and sometimes my 3 year comes with me and other times I attend class with an empty stroller. Anyone can attend class ( I’m a senior and enjoy going by myself). Eli’s is very knowledgeable about her exercises and very serious about getting you and keeping you healthy. Everyone is welcome from expectant mothers to mothers with small children and also older moms like me. Give fit for mom a try. Your first class is free!

Sarah Weismer: I’m new to Massachusetts and the north shore plus I’m a first time mom. So glad to have found Fit4Mom North Shore to get me and baby out and moving. It’s a workout, play date and friend meetup all rolled into an hour several days a week.

Oya Goktug: I love Fit4Mom North Shore❤️ I recommend all the moms. They have such a great group of moms and kids. If you are looking for doing exercise with your kid or kiddos Fit4Mom is it for you. You and your kiddos will find life long friendship.

Erin Subatis: Great workouts, great community!! A very inclusive class and then time at the end for socializing for moms and babies :)

Tamanna Gandhi: I joined the prenatal classes and Stephanie was AWESOME!! It was so good to find something which was specific to pregnant bodies and to meet other new mommiesand share stories or sometime just share experiences. Absolutely loved the workouts, Stephanie made sure to bring us new routines every-time to keep all new mommies excited. The pace is good and I would HIGHLY recommend it.

Jolyn Kittredge: I loved being able to exercise while my kids where with me! They never liked me dropping them at a gym daycare so this was the answer for me. The friends and connections made with other moms was such an important part of keeping me sane during those early years of motherhood. And Elis is the best! Positive attitude and fun…she always made me feel so welcome and part of the group. I recommend Fit4mom to every mom out there!

Colleen Beckett: Such a welcoming group of women in a moment I was unsure I could take on anything. My son and I ended up attending Stroller Strides multiple days a week and I loved it so much I ended up teaching classes, not to mention, it put me in the best shape of my life!

Alyssa King: Fit4Mom North Shore was literally my saving grace during the COVID-19 pandemic. After almost a year in isolation with my infant, I finally ventured out in Spring 2021 and tried a Fit4Mom class. Immediately I found my place. A safe space for moms and babies to come, workout, and just be together. This is more than a fitness group, it's a real community. I'm so grateful to be a part of it.With so many options for classes and workouts, I know I can continue to be a part of Fit4Mom well beyond my child's stroller days. Stroller Strides, Stroller Barre, Body Ignite, Body Well, Yoga and more. It's awesome!

Natural Tasty Chef: Love Fit 4 Mom and Elis! A great workout with a great group of moms!

Clare Fortune-Lad: I love stroller strides, and meeting other moms with kids the same age as my mine. The classes have great modifications so even if you haven't worked out in years, it's all good, and you're not alone : )

Jennifer English: I’ve loved doing the Fit4Baby classes throughout mypregnancy! They are adaptive to all stages and levels and have challenged me throughout different trimesters. It’s so nice to have a group of fellow moms too!

Kaitlyn Bruno: I can't say enough good things about Elis and Fit4mom North Shore. I found the formerly known Body Back (now Body Well) program back in July 2019 after having my second baby and it has been life changing. This is more than just a place to workout, its a community and introduced me to some great people. Elis not only helped me get back into shape but she also helped me with a healthier lifestyle while making it fun.

Caitlin Marquedant: Fit4Mom's stroller strides class is a great way to get a fun workout with your little ones and meet other moms. The instructors are fun, low pressure and accommodating to all fitness levels. Little one's stay entertained, and Mama gets her workout in!

lindsay r: I cannot say enough good things about Fit4mom Northshore. I attended stroller strides almost every day it was offered from the time my son was about 8 months old until he was about 3(I’m hoping to attend again after my next little is born). I was a new mom and really struggling. This village of moms and caregivers helped me through some of my most difficult days(even through the pandemic with virtual workouts). The program helped me bond with my little and give him socialization that he needed. This all happens through interactive and fun workouts. I didn’t know how much it would help with my mental and physical health. If you are nervous to try to get back into a workout routine or just start out like I did. I highly recommend Fit4Mom.

Rebecca Kay: Joined this past October and love it. Elis is amazing. All the workouts are always changing so you can't get bored and getting to know other moms keeps it fun.

Jensine Casey: Love this class! Its the perfect combination of getting fit with my son in tow! Its so hard as a mom to find something I can bring him to and still get a good workout but Im glad it finally found it!

Lacey Levin: Stroller strides has been such an amazing workout and chance to meet other mom friends! The instructors are awesome and so supportive! I would highly recommend the classes!
