Pre-School (24 months to 5 years old):
The focus of our preschool program is to teach social development skills and to encourage positive interaction with peer and adults.  We work with children to develop skill in language, listening, making friends and following directions.  Center activities include field trips, nap time, large and small group circle time.  A nutritious breakfast, lunch and snack are provided daily.  The State Childcare licensing ratio for preschoolers is 1:12.  The YMCA strives to maintain a lower ratio whenever possible.

Pre-School Room 1 (24 months to 3 1/2 years old):
Due to the numerous developmental skills such as large group socialization and potty training we strive to maintain a ratio of 1:6.

Pre-School Room 2 (3-5 years old):
Children must be completely potty trained.  Children are taught large group socialization skills in a classroom setting.  Your child will be introduced to colors, numbers, and letters helping to prepare them for kindergarten.
