The Lakota YMCA Before & After School program is an active childcare program for students that attend Adena, Cherokee, Creekside, Endeavor, Freedom, Heritage, Hopewell, Independence, Liberty, Shawnee, Union, Van Gorden, Woodland & Wyandot grades K-6. The program takes place in the cafetorium and also uses the gym and outside play area. The programs runs Monday-Friday from 7:00 am until the start of school and from after school until 6:00 pm. The State of Ohio Department of Jobs & Family Services licenses our program. Our staff ratio is 1 staff to 18 children. In the PM program a healthy snack and 100% fruit juice is provided.
The purpose of our school age childcare program is to meet the developmental needs of our children and to serve family needs for quality care before & after school. Our goal is to compliment the school (not duplicate) and to emulate a warm home setting.
Program goals include:
- Safe environment (staff is trained in CPR & First Aid)
- Warm and responsible youth leaders
- Fun, creative group and individual activities
- Opportunity for quiet time & free play
- Quiet area for homework will be provided
Some of the program features are arts & crafts, games, science/nature, stories, sports, free play and study time.
*Minimum enrollment is required at each school to offer program
