Our Program
Who We Serve
Nurturing caregivers provide attentive, hands-on care while parents use on-site facilities.
Child Watch
(6 weeks–5 years)
Our nurturing caregivers provide attentive, hands-on care while parents use on-site facilities. From soothing infants to leading interactive play and early learning activities for toddlers and preschoolers, staff are always present, engaged, and responsive to each child's needs.
Kids Zone
(6-11 years)
Kids enjoy a drop-in space that feels like home. Our staff lead interactive games, group challenges, creative arts and crafts, and physical activities. Every moment is guided and supervised—never passive. Staff are on the floor with the kids, facilitating play, resolving conflicts, and building real relationships.
Afterschool Program
Beyond homework help and healthy snacks, our team delivers a structured schedule of enrichment activities, physical play, and mentoring. Staff members know each child by name and personality, offering encouragement, support, and a listening ear.
Summer Camp
Our energetic and dedicated camp staff create unforgettable experiences. They lead campers in hands-on science experiments, outdoor adventures, team-building games, arts, and water play. Counselors are fully involved—from organizing activities to modeling positive behavior and guiding social-emotional development.

Message From Our Director of Youth Development
Hello! My name is Carlotta—most people call me Lottie—and I serve as the Director of Youth Development at the Y, where I lead programs that support children from 6 weeks to 11 years old, including Child Watch, Kids Zone, Afterschool, and Summer Camp. I work alongside a passionate, hands-on team to create safe, engaging spaces where kids can grow emotionally, socially, and physically. My mission is to help young people conquer their fears, discover their strengths, and become their best selves—while learning to lift others up along the way. Every day, I'm driven by the belief that with the right support and encouragement, every child can thrive and become a confident, compassionate leader. I am excited to work with you and your child in building strong kids, strong families, and strong communities.
