YMCA Daycare is designed to provide stimulating early learning experiences, including academic, cognitive, fine and gross motor, physical fitness, social and emotional development.  When your child reaches Preschool age those same wonderful experiences that they have gained in day care are expanded upon.  The YMCA Preschool is designed to give each child the opportunity to learn and grow through specialized activities.  What’s unique about our program are the additional enrichment classes in which our children participate.  Children not only learn about letters, numbers, colors, and character development but receive instruction in swimming, arts & crafts, sports, gym games, dance, and tumble tots.
