After School Child Care

The YMCA is a place where children can learn, grow and thrive after school!

The Y's After School child care program provides more than simply supervision; the Y provides kids #TimetoExplore by combining academics with play and offering a caring and safe environment where youth can achieve, feel a sense of belonging, build friendships and explore new interests.

Kids in the program will participate in fun, engaging curriculum and themed activities, a minimum of 30 minutes of physical activity a day, homework assistance, swimming (on designated days) and the opportunity to join a variety of After School Specialty Clinics.
