YMCA's across Southwestern Ontario

The YMCA has been providing child care services for almost 50 years and is the largest provider of not-for-profit child care in Canada. YMCA licensed Child Care provides many benefits to your child. In our care your child will become familiar with numbers, letters, and shapes, learn how to socialize and get along with other children, learn to share, contribute to circle time, and become more independent. The YMCA’s learning environment provides a place where your child can gain a sense of self, explore, play with his or her peers, and build confidence. Your child will find answers through exploration, experimentation, and conversation. Enrolling your child in YMCA Child Care ensures that you receive quality and expert care and support in assisting with the development of your child – a decision you can feel confident about.
