Licensed Before & After School Child Care
With so many demands on today's families, parents need all the help they can get. That's why we're America's largest child care provider. The YMCA has over 20 years of experience providing quality, licensed school-age child care for Central Ohio families. Through our affordable child care programs, we create a safe, nurturing environment for children to learn, grow and develop social skills.
Before & After School Child Care
School Days Off-School Holiday Programming
The YMCA is committed to supporting and nurturing kids in Central Ohio communities. During the school year, when schools close for parent/teacher conference days, single day holidays and longer holiday breaks, the YMCA offers full-day child care from 7am - 6pm at select branches so that kids have a place to play and learn (note: pre-registration may be necessary).
Summer Day Camp & Enrichment Camp
Summer just wouldn't be the same without the excitement and adventure of a YMCA Day Camp or Enrichment Camp. For over 30 years, central Ohio children have come together for a summer full of nature, water fun, games, cookouts, arts & crafts and new friendships! We offer a wide variety of programs for children grades 1 through 6.
Overnight Camp
Enjoy the best that summer has to offer with swimming, boating, archery, campfires, food, singing, sports, nature, camp-outs, and much more at Camp Willson – the YMCA's premier resident camp.
Summer Teen Experience
At the YMCA, our Summer Teen Experience is designed to help young people improve their leadership skills, explore and create through innovation, navigate new experiences, establish healthy living habits and build positive relationships with their community.
Kindergarten Plus
Our full-day Kindergarten Plus program takes place on non-school days. The program curriculum is aligned with the Olentangy Local District’s Kindergarten curriculum and is designed to complement classroom learning.
