YMCA Childcare

Overview

YMCA childcare serves families across Nottinghamshire at a number of schools and community sites. This fantastic programme is built around the charity's four core values: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.
Before and After School Clubs will run in schools across the city during the 2020 Autumn term, alongside Wollaton Holiday Club at Middleton Primary and Nursery School every half-term.
At YMCA childcare Before and After School Clubs, children get involved with sports, crafts, and STEAM activities (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics). STEAM is an educational approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics to guide critical thinking and creativity. The end results are children who take thoughtful risks, engage in experiential learning, persist in problem-solving, embrace collaboration, and work through the creative process.
These are the innovators, educators, leaders, and learners of the 21st century!
Our team have put a number of positive hygiene measures in place to keep children safe when they attend our clubs. We will be continually reviewing them throughout each term, in line with government guidelines and updates.
Our COVID-19 Safety Plan outline the actions and expectations of YMCA staff, parents and children. Please make sure you familiarise yourself with them before your child attends a session. You can read the plan in full here.
