ENCOURAGE GROWTH
DEVELOP POTENTIAL

As a parent we know that the most important thing in your life is your child. While you would like nothing more than to be the sole influence in your child’s world, sometimes life requires you to reach out to others for support. At the Y we understand how important your child’s safety and well-being is. 

Through our state licensed Before and After School Child Care programs we will support your efforts to cultivate your child's healthy development. Well-trained staff provides safe, nurturing, high-quality care so you can have peace of mind while you work to help your family succeed. Activities include science, group projects, environmental awareness, arts and crafts, games, physical activity, field trips, homework assistance and much more!

Five Great Reasons to Entrust Your Child to the YMCA:
  1. Trained professional staff who are warm and responsive to your child’s needs.
  2. Positive reinforcement in both words and actions of the values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.
  3. An environment that enables children to develop feelings of self-worth, independence, and relationships with other children and caring adults.
  4. A variety of creative, educational, and fun activities to keep children engaged and interested.
  5. We realize the importance and value of family and continuously strive to support each child and their family. 
The Y partners with schools in Ankeny and Waukee to deliver Before and After School Child Care through the area elementary schools. The John R. Grubb YMCA provides After School Child Care at the Y and at Finley Elementary School in Des Moines.
