How can I enroll my child in the program?
Applications
for Before & After School Care are available at our East Freehold
facility year round.
If you’d like more information about
registration and monthly tuition, you can call the After School Care
Office at (732) 462-0464 ext. 155.
Who supervises the children in the program?
The
programs are supervised by certified teachers or qualified staff and
teaching assistants who meet New Jersey State licensing
requirements. In addition, field coordinators oversee all aspects
of the programs and report directly to our YMCA
directors.
Why is the Before & After School Care Program
so important for parents/guardians who work or go to school?
Our
programs provide a “home away from home” environment where the
children can unwind from the structured school day, socialize, have
a snack, do their homework and participate in wholesome group
activities.
Does the Before & After School program provide
recreational and educational activities?
Yes. The programs provide activities which include Arts & Humanities,
Health & Fitness Awareness, Literacy, Science Technology, Social
Competence and Conflict Resolution.
Why should parents/guardians choose the YMCA
Before & After School Program instead of some other school age child
care program?
The
YMCA of Western Monmouth County Before & After School Care Program
has run successfully for over 23 years. Here we recognize that your
children are a part of our community, and our mission is to help
them to develop to their fullest in spirit, mind and body by
incorporating the core values of caring, respect, honesty and
responsibility in our curriculum.
