Visiting Angels

When I accepted the position at Visiting Angels it was a complete career change for me, I knew that caring for human beings came natural to me so I decided to give it a try. I had attended nursing school several years prior although I did not finish do to a family health crisis. When things calm down and I returned to the workforce I accepted a corporate position. Even though I was an essential part of the day today operations I wasn't happy or fulfilled. I started with Visiting Angels about a year before the COVID epidemic, and I continue to be employed with Visiting Angels to this day. From caregivers point of view this job is one of the most challenging yet rewarding things I have ever been a part of! I have been blessed with the opportunity to care for the same clients for years. I always pass my thoughts an the mindset that I have about being a caregiver. NOTHING is more important than a human life! Take care of the client as if they were a member of your own family! Leave the clients home better than when you arrived.  I adore the clients as well as the families I work with!
It isn't very often that a high level employee makes themselves readily available for you, but working with Visiting Angels management they have always been available for any concerns. Visiting Angels has created an environment for me to thrive as a caregiver. I just want to say thank you to Visiting Angels for the opportunity and thank you to the beautiful families for letting me be a part of your lives I am for the better.

I worked for Visiting Angels for 2 years. I loved my job and my clients. Betsey and Rich were fantastic to work for. They are fair and compassionate and go out of their way to work with you. I was very fortunate to work for such a great company.

We engaged with Visiting Angels as my mom was transitioning home from a stay in rehab after a fall.  Betsey, the owner and executive director, met with us to define the scope of needs and then her team identified the "angels" to come to assist my mom.  While not every caregiver was a fit, Betsey and her team quickly made adjustments and developed a team that my mom adores.  They do amazing work and have been so critical to my mom's successful transition home.  The "angels" have been gifts to our entire family.  I would highly recommend their services.

I absolutely loved working here, it’s the first caregiving job I’ve had where they truly do care about their employee’s and they always are sure to give great feedback! I felt very seen and welcomed here for the two years I was with them, and the clients I had I have absolutely loved my time with them, they have all felt like more like family! Everyone is so sweet and understanding! This is the best place to work! :)

Betsey Morthland and her team at Visiting Angels have been just that...angels! They have been providing support and care for a member of my family for nearly a year, with daily home visits to provide help with light household chores, companionship, and transportation for weekly grocery shopping and various appointments. They have truly been a partner in care. This has meant the world to me and my family, as we are spread across the country and cannot take on the daily tasks. Betsey herself has gone above and beyond to ensure our needs were met; she and her team are responsive, compassionate, and have provided an excellent standard of care. I would highly recommend Betsey and her Visiting Angel team; your loved ones will be in great hands.

Very happy with my experience. Walked in not knowing what i needed, left with all my questions answered and the supplies i needed. Very great staff, the employee working at the time deserves a raise 💪🏽

Called in advance for one item and the clerk had it,  and only one left on the shelf. Saved it for us. When we got there, a different clerk rang us out and was very nice, friendly. We even joked around with him about the survey that was on the debit card reader...Nice atmosphere.

Pay for the subscription over a year ago and yet to receive the 2 boxes that I supposedly was promised.  Have reached out to customer service but have got nothing but a run around.

Great service especially since I'm a novice

Staff is super nice and very well informed and helpful. Great sales always going on.

StretchLab

They bury a lot of the financial terms in fine print.  You have to sign up for three months minimum, and you also have to provide one month's notice to cancel so they can stick you for one more month.
Also, they require you to buy their special (overpriced) socks.

as an "older" golfer this is exactly what i need.   The constant stress my golf swing puts on my back and hips is somewhat painful.  After only 3 visits i don't get sore anymore when i play and practice.  Highly recommend!!!

The staff was wonderful.
I had to cancel my trial after 1 month due to circumstances that matter to no one but me. I met with a manager on site to discuss this to which he informed me that my trial was canceled without penalty and not to expect the next to payments to be processed. After about 10 days, I did see another charge to my debit card. After reaching out over the phone and leaving a message for the manager to call me back, I received no response. 7 days later: I call again to speak with a manager and the associate who answered the phone took a message for the owner to call me back.
When I spoke with the owner, he made it clear that regardless of my circumstances, his were the priority and that he would not be reimbursing the charge.

Again, staff is wonderful. 5 stars.
I do not feel the same about Owner. Knock it down to 2 stars for the franchise.

My advice is do not sign a contract. They will get you regardless of your circumstances.

Amazing! Just used my trial session and will be joining. The one on one stretching felt great, the trainer/coach educated me about what he was doing and why and sent me home with some exercises. The facility is sparkling clean, the guy at the front counter was welcoming and engaging, and they have evening and weekend hours. Not sure why my health insurance doesn’t cover this because this is healthcare like it ought to be.

My active 12-year-old has significantly benefited from adding Stretch Lab sessions to his routine. His recovery time after soccer practices and games has been drastically reduced, and his range of motion has increased, making him a better player.

We love how flexible (pun intended?) scheduling is, how friendly the owner and staff are, and how reasonable the monthly membership prices are. The option to text instead of call and even book online are great options for those of us on the go.

Our son's personal connections with the staff members who genuinely care about his well-being keep us coming back. Both he and I recommend Stretch Lab to people of all ages and fitness levels.

Ballwin Fit Body Boot Camp

Ballwin Fit Body Boot Camp is not like any ordinary gym. They make everyone feel welcome. I was a little hesitant at first to give them a try because I am over weight and didn’t want to be judged. That was not the case at all. Each and every time the coaches welcomed me and actually talked to me like I was a person. The coaches are so helpful and supportive when you need an alternative to the workout.

Ballwin Fit Body Boot Camp has absolutely changed my life. I was trying to get healthy on my own but found myself lacking the proper tools to really push the workouts to maximize results in a sustainable fashion. I signed up for a consultation and Mike was extraordinarily helpful, understanding, and most of all, encouraging. I had so many questions and he never got frustrated. After going over different price options, we found the best one for me and I went to my first class. The schedule for classes is also really flexible so it works nicely with my own schedule. The gym is also really clean and well-maintained which makes me feel a lot better about plopping down from exhaustion 🤣 I was really nervous since I'd never done anything like joining a boot camp or fitness class. When I got there, Coaches Sarah & Finlay explained perfectly how each class would function and what to expect from the 30 minutes. I was SORE but excited to go back - which has never happened before 🤣 The next day, I was ready to go and found that the encouragement (and humor, this time with Coach Tim) was just how they actually are there. The coaches really care about your success to be strong in every way. Sarah always repeats my mantra with me, "Just one more, just one more". They take time to make sure you're getting the most out of each workout. I'm a Googler and a question asker and they're so helpful and patient with everything I ask. They are so positive and encouraging, which is the kind of environment I thrive in. I recently accomplished an exercise I didn't think I could do and Coach Finlay actually shared in my excitement. THIS is what fitness is about! They guide nutrition as well as exercise to make sure your insides are ruining at top speed. I look forward to waking up and going to the classes. If you're thinking about signing up, just try it. It's worth every second of effort you put into it.

Update: nearing 50 classes in, with no plans to stop

From someone who has never had any type of gym membership, do yourself a favor and see what's it all about! I'd never worked out consistently until joining FBBC and am so glad I took the plunge. All the trainers are friendly, fabulous, and fit! They're also eager to help you learn proper form. I love the flexibility of attending an AM, lunchtime, or PM session that can be coordinated with my hectic work schedule. While I have no comparison, this place is superb. I hope they stick around forever to keep us in good health.

Love Fit Body Boot Camp - Ballwin!  The coaches are SO knowledgeable and encouraging!  The members are also motivating and supportive.  Every day is a different workout which keeps it interesting and fun!  This is Family!

I have been going to FBBC for about a year. Love the quick 30 minute workouts. You do something different every day so you don’t get bored. All exercises can modified to your fitness level.  Love the coaching staff. They make an effort to get to know you and call you by name when you walk in the door.  It is a fun place to work out.

It is always a great experience for mind and body at Stretchlab Edina. The staff is friendly, responsive, caring and qualified. Thank you Sophia, Kelsi, Morgan, Jeremy, Nael, Sonnie and Vicky are wonderful hosts and always find solutions.

Lance and Sonnie made my first experience top notch from start to finish! From signing up to checking in and being walked through my first stretch! Feeling all the benefits even today what a great business idea and what a great location! Highly recommend stretch lab

Everybody at Stretch lab are awesome, some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. I’ve only worked with Sophia and Lily and both of them did a phenomenal job. Both are always smiling and making good conversation that your time will fly by. But most important, they do a great job at making sure you get in a good stretch and get your body feeling right.

I have been coming to Stretch lab for 2 years now… And I have not visited the chiropractor since. I usually throw my back out every 6 months… With Stretch lab I no longer have this problem. It’s truly preventative care! The team is great!

Great stretch! I felt I could trust Jeremy who made me feel very safe and was very professional and personable. He helped release a lot of tension and pain and explained and guided me through the process. I recommend Jeremy very highly.

During early December of 2023, I had a girls week getaway.    I felt very comfortable leaving for my trip knowing I’d have help from my Angels.

My angel Thelma H spent evenings and overnights with my husband.   She made dinner, spent time talking with him , and even brought treats that he likes

For weekdays I had Cathy M, and Karen M.   Both these angels have been with my husband for a couple years.   He was well fed, entertained, and even got on an exercise bike

Thank you all for being so dependable, supportive and loving

You are the best

Visiting Angels has been such a blessing for not only my mom but also for me as the caregiver. Julie W. has been absolutely amazing and such a great companion for my mom. My mom looks forward to her visits every week and really enjoys her company and everything that she does to help her out. a HUGE thank you to Julie!!!!

Our mom has been a client of Visiting Angels for the past 4 months.  Her caregiver Michelle H has been instrumental in helping her recover from her fall.  Michelle is cheerful, energetic and a wonderful companion.  She keeps her on a routine, helps remember appointments, meal planning , prepping and running errands.  We really appreciate her positive outlook and encouragement and hope she remains with our mom into the future.  We rely on Michelle H and Visiting Angels to help keep our mom in her own home.  In our Mom's own words:  She's a keeper!  We highly recommend this service for your love one's needs.

We couldn't be happier with the care provided by Michelle Jacobs of Visiting Angels. Michelle is consistent, always upbeat, willing to help and assist in many ways to support us, and very considerate. Social activities, shopping, and helping focus during the day with my wife are very important.

Visiting Angels has been a great resource for our family in planning Mom's home care. Shelda is one of those caregivers that puts her heart and soul into her job. She is truly a caring and kind person, always pleasant and ready to assist in any way possible. Thank you, Shelda!

Burn Boot Camp - Manchester

I’ve always loved being active, but would find myself in spurts where I’d workout and other times where I wouldn’t. I joined Burn Boot Camp in April 2021, and never looked back. This is the most consistent I’ve ever been and I feel so much more knowledgeable about my overall health and nutrition as well from my focus meetings with the trainers. The people in this gym and the trainers are truly the best.

Loving their new location! So much bigger! Every time I come, everyone is so friendly. Great workouts explained by a trainer with modifications if needed. The trainers are very involved and move about the room to make sure everyone is having correct form to avoid injuries. It’s a great gym!

5+ years and I’ve never done the same workout twice. Amazing supportive trainers and community. The trainers meet you where you are in your fitness journey and encourage you to find your strong. Nutritional guidance. Free childcare. Multiple class times. Free universal membership. No place like it. I have never stuck with a workout program this long! Burn Boot Camp has helped me find the athlete I never knew I was! My favorite happy place (besides the beach🙂)!

I visited BURN Manchester while I was in town, using my universal membership. Everyone was so welcoming and the new facility was spacious and fully equipped. The trainers give one-on-one attention in an energizing class setting. Cannot recommend highly enough!

This is my favorite gym that I’ve ever belonged to. The atmosphere is unbelievable. The trainers know your name and cheer you on. You can walk in knowing no one and walk out with a friend. I highly recommend for any and all age groups and body types/experiences !!

Bettendorf Family YMCA

Love the pool and track, and most of the folks at the front desk are very friendly and helpful. My gripe is with the condition of the women's locker room, particularly the showers. Honestly, I've got to wonder when any of them were last cleaned - particularly the showers on the ends of the row. Disgusting hardly covers it. Won't go into detail. Suffice to say, never be without shower shoes anywhere in the locker room. Also, no soup in dispenser

I really enjoy the pool and the hot tub.  It only took about ten minutes to become a member.  I'm a natural redhead and I don't like to get sunburnt, so the YMCA is perfect.

Not a fan. The membership is too expensive considering something you need is always broken. Day passes for a single day are half the cost of a monthly membership which makes no sense to me. You would think the employees would get paid more too since they are saving on repair costs from not repairing anything or hiring an adequate amount of staff. I've cancelled my membership but when I did go, the women's restroom in the weight lifting area never had soap either.

Hygiene issue for sure in men's locker room and steam room. More times than not, smells like a mildewy wet sock fallen behind the washer with a spritz of fromunda. Equip. rags always gone it seems. For how new facility is, outdated ellipticals and bikes. Not convenient to go out of my way to another branch. Need  some more effort put into this place.

Just on vacation and stopped in for 45 minutes on the bike. Nice and busy place. Had a hard time finding a wipe or small towel for cleaning the bike. Otherwise fine.

St. Louis Fitness Bootcamp

Really enjoyed first bootcamp this morning. Great workout with CJ and a super group of welcoming people. Contrary to my photos, there were at least 30 people there.  Today was cardio day and it pushed you. Looking forward to next couple of classes while I'm in town.

I can't say enough about how much I like this boot camp. I was intimidated about starting because I didn't know what to expect and I was out of shape. From day one I was hooked. The instructors and the other clients were friendly, helpful and welcoming. It's never been overcrowded, it's organized and they keep you constantly moving throughout the entire workout. It's great for all fitness levels, as they show you variations to all exercises so you can make them easier or more intense depending on your own fitness level. They take interest in their clients, knowing them all by name and frequently hear them throw out encouraging words "good job Cheryl", etc. They pay attention to each individual and if you are doing an exercise improperly, they come by and show you how to do it the correct way and explain why it's the better way. I recently had an injury that affected my ability to complete some of the scheduled exercises, they were very good at showing me an alternative one that would achieve the same results. All in all, great people, great atmosphere and great workout. Win win.

this class is challenging, which i find difficult to find. a lot of classes cater to the least-fit person which doesn't leave room for advanced students. this class is structured that works for beginners and experienced people, so it's easy to find your level. the workouts are fun, interesting, and never the same which i like. also, the venue (vetta) is amazing for working out, it's an indoor soccer venue with this spongy fake grass that makes me feel like the bionic woman. and CJ is awesome.

Tailored to any age or level. Great upbeat atmosphere. Workouts are never the same. Weekly blog posts & motivation. CJ puts all his skill and knowledge into each bootcamp for optimal fitness training.

I Love coming here. I feel much better and have more energy throughout my day! I notice a huge difference in my overall health and strength. The exercises C.J. has are always different to keep the body guessing. C.J. is very knowledgeable and puts full effort into creating a better you!
