Preschool

Our 4-star rated Grow New Jersey Kids program follows the Creative Curriculum, a play-based program that prioritizes engaging, hands-on learning. Our trained teachers use positive engagement and children's areas of interest to meet them where they're at. The Y follows the 4 Core Values of honesty, respect, responsibility and caring. We implement these into our day-to-day learning through service projects and community engagement.

YMCA Kindergarten

KINDERGARTEN extended day

Located in Moss School, Kindergarten Extended Day programming at the Y provides children with a positive, engaging, interactive continuation of their in-school education. The Y's curriculum provides children with the opportunity to approach academics in a hands-on and exploratory way to build and solidify a lifelong love of learning. With a focus on literacy, math, science, social studies, the arts and technology, children will build the skills necessary to prepare them for first grade and beyond. Through the curriculum and the Y's commitment to value based learning, children in these programs become independent, self-confident, curious learners who can work well with others.

YMCA Before and After School Care

BEFORE & AFTER CARE

Located in Campbell School, Edgar Middle School and our Metuchen Branch YMCA for James Monroe students, our programs for school-aged children provide youth with supervised activities that teach core values, conflict resolution and leadership skills. Kids have fun while building self-confidence appreciating teamwork, and gaining independence. Activities allow kids to create arts and crafts, explore science and technology, swim, participate in field trips, appreciate nature and better understand our many cultures. These Y programs give you peace of mind while you are at work and ensure that learning and character development continues during out of school time.
