Childcare

As the largest provider of childcare in Southwestern Ontario, the YMCA promotes personal growth, instills positive values and enhances self-esteem in children, building blocks for a successful future.  YMCA early learning experiences support school readiness and health development.  Older children benefit from before and after school care that encourages literacy skills, leadership opportunities and constructive use of time.

At the YMCA parents find caring support and resources to help them in their most important job-raising healthy kids.  The safe, nurturing environment of our child care programs provide peace of mind for parents juggling the multiple demands of family life. 

Your donation can support child care centre programs in low-income areas or community outreach programs, so that parents can be the best parents they can be.

 $700 Allows a brother and sister to join a school age child care program for a month.

$900 Pays for a month of toddler care for a single parent trying to re-enter the workforce
