EARLY CHILDHOOD & PRESCHOOL PROGRAMS
The YMCA of Long Island's Early Childhood/Preschool Programs are committed to providing a safe, supportive learning environment for young children to learn, grow and develop social skills. Our teachers create a warm and loving atmosphere while offering a developmentally-appropriate, engaging curriculum, where children can play, discover and learn. The development of independence, trust and initiative is fostered through a balanced program of choice and structure, quiet and active play, and group and individual time. Our programs encourage children to explore, experiment and learn through literacy, science, dramatic play, block building, art, music and manipulative materials all while acquiring school readiness skills of reading and math. Age ranges for Early Childhood/Preschool Programs are 18 months* - 4 years old. *Please check your local branch as ages vary per branch.
* All participants in YMCA Child Care programs must have an active Program or Full Membership.

SCHOOL AGE CHILD CARE PROGRAMS (SACC)
At the YMCA of Long Island, our Before and After School Programs are designed to help children thrive—academically, socially, and emotionally. In partnership with school districts across Nassau and Suffolk counties, we provide a safe, nurturing environment that supports student learning beyond the classroom. Each day, children participate in enriching activities like homework help, STEM projects, arts & crafts, youth movement, nutrition education, and more. Our experienced staff promote positive behaviors, build social skills, and foster a sense of confidence and belonging in every child.
