Member Child Care

Kids Have Fun While You Workout

Free to Family Members, Member Child Care provides a nurturing, safe and fun environment for the children of Y Family Members while they work out or take a class. The goal of our staff is to create an atmosphere where parents feel comfortable and children feel valued.

Ages: 6 months to 10 years. Please note: children age 8 to 10 may benefit from bringing a book to read, or other activity while they are in this space. This is a new offering to accommodate our members, and we are working on bringing in some activities geared toward this age range!

To ensure quality care, we maintain a 1:4 ratio. Reservations are encouraged to ensure space for all children, and should be made online up to a week in advance. There must be a minimum of three children with reservations for a session to run.
