Your child is discovering all kinds of new worlds. That's why at YMCA Child Care we carefully design every activity to expand your kid's imagination and encourage lifelong positive values. Their newfound confidence naturally strengthens the relationship they have with you, and that progression is at the heart of our philosophy -- good child care is good family care. We offer: field trips, nutritious snacks, age-appropriate curriculum, winter and spring break camps, experienced professional staff, half-day and holiday special events, fun-filled activities, sports and fitness activities, enrichment activities, supervised homework time, and swimming classes.
Full- and part-time YMCA Child Care is divided into specific, age-appropriate programs that provide your kids with high-quality and enjoyable experiences. For infants and toddlers, personal attention, rich sensory experiences, and a generous supply of giggles are a big part of their day. Preschoolers learn the importance of making choices, taking turns, developing language skills, and working in a group while they play games and create to the limits of their imagination. School-aged kids join in a variety of experiences including: service-learning, science, reading, and developing and practicing social skills. They gather in a safe environment that focuses on making friends, building relationships, staying active, and exercising leadership skills.
Parents can bring their children to the YMCA on designated Fridays to take advantage of a night of family fun! Children from 3-12 years old will enjoy fun activities, movies and games. Registration is required and must be completed by the Wednesday before each Friday session. all (202) 889-0643 for more information. 
YMCAs are among the nation's leading volunteer organizations. Our volunteers are the backbone of our organization. Their time and talent go a long way. Every hour spent as a YMCA volunteer translates into the caring attention a child or teen needs to grow up healthy, happy, strong, and successful.
