School-Age Care

As a parent, you know that the hours before, and after school are critical times for a child’s development. Before and after school care at the Y provides you peace of mind, knowing your children are safe and in an environment where the learning taking place at home and school, will continue. The Y partners with families to offer homework support, healthy snacks, physical activity such as games and sports, as well as arts, science, and plenty of opportunities to try new things and make great friends. We do all of this while also making safety our number one priority. 
Our enrichment programs provide a space for transformative learning experiences in a caring setting during critical after school hours. Our staff are carefully screening using standards set by the State of California, completing extensive training, and participating in ongoing education. We also understand the role that YMCA staff play in exposing youth to positive role models who build their self-esteem and sense of community. Located on school campuses, we provided age-appropriate and active learning environments using SCALED LEARNING™ curriculum.

Youth Programs

Through the Y’s activities for kids, we develop the values, skills, and relationships that lead to positive behaviors, better health, and educational achievement. Classes teach the fundamentals of program areas in a supportive environment. Programs at the Y encourage personal expression and the freedom to create and provides new experiences for kids. Our programs run in several-week sessions throughout the year. Each Y location offers unique programs to fit that community's needs.
