We believe that the partnership between parents and our Early Childhood Educators is essential to the healthy growth of your children and your family.
We give your children the opportunity to play, go on outings and participate in other stimulating activities. Our YMCA Playing to Learn is a play-based curriculum that focuses on learning as a natural human process that occurs through exploration, discovery and experience in a setting that is designed to encourage and promote inquiry brought on by children’s natural sense of wonder and curiosity. We have five YMCA Child Care Centre’s that serve a variety of age groups.
