Care That Fits Your Life
We believe strong communities start with strong kids. That’s why we offer flexible, affordable child care programs designed to support families—whether you need full-time care, after-school support, or time to recharge during your own workout.
Infant, Toddler & Preschool Care
We offer a variety of early childhood care and education options to support young learners and busy families. Whether you're looking for full-day care in one of our licensed Child Development Centers or a part-day, play-based preschool experience, all of our programs nurture creativity, social development, and school readiness in a safe, supportive environment.
School-Age Child Care
Before- and after-school programs that support learning, play, and peace of mind. With numerous school-based and YMCA locations across Greater Louisville and Southern Indiana, our school-age programs provide a safe, fun environment for kids to unwind, explore, and grow beyond the classroom—whether you need care before school, after, or both.
Kids' Club
On-site child care while you work out—fun for them, peace of mind for you. Included with family memberships, Kids’ Club offers a safe, supervised space where children enjoy creative play, crafts, games, and movement while parents focus on their wellness goals. This service is available during designated hours and only while the caregiver remains on YMCA property.
