WHAT WILL YOUR CHILD LEARN? 

Our early learning centers at Great Miami Valley YMCA are designed to prepare children for success during their foundational years. We enroll children from six weeks to five years old and provide hands-on experiences with Creative Curriculum that enhances a child's physical, cognitive, language, and social-emotional development. Our teachers foster each child's positive self-concept within a nurturing environment that allows children to explore activities related to various classroom studies.

Testimonials from parents like you!

"When I was pregnant with Simon, I did not think I would ever find a childcare facility that I would be fully satisfied with. I am thrilled to be wrong. At the Y, Simon learns and grows every day. He is challenged academically and encouraged to develop into a socially well rounded boy who will be more than ready for kindergarten. More importantly, though, I go to work every day knowing Simon is safe and so, so loved." ~Emily LaForge
 

“Our family loves the Y. We truly feel our daughter is cared for and loved by each and every staff member. She has learned so much in her time there and we can’t wait for her baby brother to start. We were hesitant about putting her in daycare at first but the second we toured the Y we knew it was the perfect place. There is open communication, it’s always clean, her teachers go above and beyond in how they care for children.” ~Emily Myers

 

"The YMCA is my way of giving back to the community! I love how many families and individuals we are able to help. Not only that but the YMCA has allowed me to advance in my career in early childhood. The teachers are amazing and my son loves everything about his class! Can't wait for my future kids to attend too!" ~Mary Stewart
