Child Care

COMING SOON! More than ever, busy parents need support. When parents come to the Y for a class, group activity or workout, their kids need a nurturing, enriching environment where they can build healthy, trusting relationships with other kids and adults. In Child Watch, children ages 8 weeks to 10 years old play under the supervision of caring, trained Y staff. At the same time, their parents are able to relax, connect with other Y members and enjoy healthy activities at the Y.

The YMCA of Metropolitan Lansing in partnership with Lansing School District provides licensed school-age before and after program. The YMCA’s Before & Afterschool Care programs provide students with weekly theme-based activities that support experiential learning. They also make healthy choices that include eating nutritious snacks, taking time for active play, and participating in healthy activities.

Now Enrolling! At the Oak Park Early Learning Center, children (6 weeks - 5 years) learn and grow socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually. Our caring, qualified staff creates a stimulating, child-centered environment and offer a wide range of activities designed to meet the developmental needs of young children.

Now Enrolling! Our preschool program is a wonderful, safe environment for your child to learn and grow. The programs are operated using an experiential learning philosophy—children learn by doing.
