Childcare

The Out of School Clubs are open during term time with the exception of Bank Holidays. They meet a great need for many parents, offering the children a fun place to go before and after school. Staff are qualified and experienced, and they offer a professional and quality service to your family.

The Breakfast Clubs are open from 7.30am. Breakfast will be available up to 8.15am for children attending the club. The children are walked to/dropped off at their local school. The YMCA Out of School club is the only one that accepts children from other schools, as long as their own transport is arranged.

The After School Clubs are open from 3.00pm till 6.00pm. Children are collected from their school, and the YMCA Out of School Club accepts children from other schools with their own transport arrangements. A healthy snack is provided for the children on their return from school, and a light tea is provided around 4.30pm. A family atmosphere is encouraged to provide the children with a home-from-home situation as much as possible.
