Programs With A Purpose
The YMCA of the North Shore believes that our childcare programs are an extension of the home. We seek to help children and adults in their daily functioning, to relieve stress, and to provide the necessary resources that will strengthen the family unit that we believe is the foundation for a healthy community, society and world. The YMCA advocates for all parents in their efforts to be responsible caregivers who are concerned with developmentally appropriate activities, practices, and programs for their children. YMCA Preschool programs provide a safe, wholesome environment in which children can learn to communicate, cooperate and care about each other.Full-Day Preschool Care Program Offers: - Cooperative play emphasis
- Socialization Skills
- Preschool Creative Curriculum
- Low Staff-to Child Ratios
- Licensed by the Department of Early Education and Care
- Caring, nurturing staff
What will your child learn and develop?
At the Ipswich Family YMCA Child Development Center your child will learn and develop age-appropriate skills on a fun-filled schedule of activities each month. Our experienced teachers provide parents with a monthly newsletter that highlights the learning activities as well as important feedback about each child in the program. It's one way we can keep our parents informed on the learning happening in our program. Program Hours:
