Let us care for your child in our safe, friendly and nurturing environment. We have tailored our programs and services to be flexible and fit into your busy lifestyle. Your child can join us for the full day or a half day of care, for an afterschool program, for instructional classes or just to drop in and play. Check out our program guide to see the many choices your child has!

Our children’s specialty rooms are designed to be fun, educational and age appropriate. From our babysitting room to the climbing wall in the gym, children of all ages are well taken care of.

We have classes, programs and specialty camps designed for the budding Michaelangelo, Michael Jordan and Mark Spitz. Your child will find many activities to keep them busy, entertained and happy.

Children’s Programs

We want your child to experience a variety of different activities where they can have fun, be successful and learn a new skill. We have both care based half-day programs for your pre-school child or after school programs for your older child.

If your child is interested in art, we have pottery and arts ‘n crafts programs. If your child is a real fish in the water, we have swimming classes, junior lifeguard programs and swim clubs.

If your child is active and loves to run, we offer Mighty Munchkins Gym, Kid Bits, Sportball and more!

If there is a program that you are interested in but we don't have, ask us. We will custom create many programs to suit your child’s needs.

Our two most popular programs are Time for 2s and Kids 'R' Us. One of the cities only unparented two-year-old programs, Time For 2s introduces your toddler to socialization, sharing, circle time and active time without mom or dad.

Our staff are fully certified pre-school educators who ensure your two year old has the time of their life and feel well prepared to enter pre-school the following year. Your child does not need to be toilet trained to be in our program, but they do need to be two years old.

Take a break! Your toddler will play in the gym, create art projects, listen to stories and learn about Shabbat in our daily two-hour program. Sign up for one day or for all five. Your child will thank you!

We also offer a follow up program in the gym for the most active toddlers who want to play for an additional hour!

For your Junior Kindergarten or ECS child we have a half-day program that begins when their pre-school day ends. This program helps your child to prepare for a full day at school in subsequent years and also provides them with many different activities to participate in and build skills.

Kids 'R' Us is offered 5 afternoons a week and includes lessons in ice skating, computer skills and swimming. To help your child burn off that excess energy there is also daily gym time, indoor and outdoor play, and active games. A variety of other activities are offered as well including dance, cooking, arts ‘n crafts and children’s’ entertainers. Your child will never be bored as the activities are different every day of the week.

This program can include transportation from schools, as well as an after school option to keep your child busy all day! This program sells out every year so be sure to register your child early. Members can sign up for the full year starting in March.
