Child Watch

We provide play for your child while you workout! Your child may color, cook, build, play, watch videos and pretend like crazy like while you play! Child Watch is for member children ages 2 months to 6 years. Parents who leave children in our Childcare services must remain in the YMCA facilities. Children must be signed in and out. A child may remain in Child Watch for up to 2 hours, then there must be at least a 4 hour break before children may re-enter for up to 2 more hours. Children will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities during their time in Child Watch, ranging from arts and crafts to board games and much more.

Updated Childcare Guidelines

  1. Child Watch is for ages 2 months to 12 years.
  2. Child Watch is not a drop-off service, and parents are to remain inside the building at all times.
  3. The person who signs the child into Child Watch will be the one who picks the child up.  We can only release the child to another person with written permission from the person who signed the child in.
  4. Each child will need to be checked in at the front desk, as well as have their temperature taken.
  5. A child may remain in Child Watch for a maximum of 2 hours and then the child must have a 4 hour break before coming back for another maximum of 2 hours.
  6. Guest children, with a visitor pass, are allowed in Child Watch as space allows.
