SIGN UP TODAY!
Provide your child a warm and supportive
environment in which to grow.
At the eight branches of the
YMCA of Greater Brandywine,
many childcare and early
learning programs are offered
for children six weeks to six
years old including:
• Childcare
• Preschool and Pre-K
Led by certified teachers, children are provided with hands-on learning
experiences through a comprehensive, research-based curriculum
known as Creative Curriculum, which focuses on exploration and
discovery as a way of learning. In addition, our programs participate in
the Keystone STARS program, which promotes high quality standards
in early learning and school aged programs.
Because of the YMCA’s facilities and offerings, many of our programs
also include swim lessons, sports, gymnastics, music and more.* In
addition, classes available at the YMCA such as dance and karate can
be added on to your child’s day,* with YMCA staff ensuring each child
moves safely from one activity to the next.
Finally, because of donations to the YMCA’s Annual Campaign, we are
able to offer financial assistance to those unable to afford the standard
fees. Contact or visit your local YMCA branch for more information.
*Programs vary by branch. Ask your local branch for details.
“My kids and I love the YMCA’s
childcare program! The staff is
vested in the children and it shows
in how they respond to them. I find
it very reassuring to know that my
children are in great hands while
I’m at work.” - Parent
