At the Y, we strengthen community through youth development because we believe that our community is stronger when all children have the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. Our School-Age Care program impacts youth by guiding them through skill development, positive relationships, and inspiring opportunities to explore and discover.
We are committed to helping your family learn, grow, and thrive. Our Early Learning Center places your infant, toddler, or preschooler in a supportive environment where they will grow through hands-on learning, individual development, and activities. Following a developmentally age-appropriate curriculum called Creative Curriculum, we aim to help children grow and thrive. Click below to learn more about the Y’s Early Learning Center.
Preschool at the Y is affordable, safe, and engaging! The program emphasizes hands-on, play-based learning which fosters a child’s natural curiosity and love for learning. We focus on nurturing social and emotional development, helping children build essential skills and self-confidence. Our preschool program is designed to prepare children for school readiness, laying a strong foundation for their academic journey ahead.
Half-day program, 2 or 3 days per week, days vary by location.
Kids Zone is a drop-in child care service included in a Family Membership at the Y where parents or guardians are able to use the facility freely while getting up to two hours of free child care per day.
