YOUTH DEVELOPMENT Early Preschool Education Ages 2.9 – 5 years

With so many demands on today’s families, parents need all the support they can get. That’s why early childhood programs at the Y are about more than looking after kids.

It’s about nurturing their development by providing a safe place to learn skills and develop relationships that lead to positive behavior, better health and educational achievement.

At the Y, we also focus on role-modeling and teaching kids the Y values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.

We welcome families at all of our program sites and encourage you to visit. Holidays, parties, family nights, special programs, and field trips are all occasions for families to get involved at the Y. We are proud to be accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children for maintaining the highest professional standards in curriculum and teaching qualifications. This accreditation lets families know that children in our program are receiving the best care in early care experiences. This reinforces our mission of building strong kids, strong families and strong communities beginning with our youngest children.
