TODDLER CARE THROUGH PRE K<\/h3>\r\n

We are a support system for families helping to build a child’s future from the moment they join our program. We enroll children starting with toddlers (15 months) through Pre-Kindergarten in our Early Learning Center, a fully licensed child care program, and we hope your child stays and grows with us through our School Age Program as well. To meet the needs of our families, we offer flexible day options.<\/p>\r\n

Our Top of the Hill Pre School<\/strong> is our part-day, part year preschool at our North Attleboro Branch starting at age 2.9 years old.<\/p>\r\n

Our commitment to strengthening the foundations of community means being there for children and families. The Hockomock Area YMCA brings together more than 1,200 families in our Early Learning Centers. Across our four locations and in six school districts, from infant to school age care, the Hockomock Area YMCA strives to give youth the best start in life. Today\u2019s working parents rely on quality child care, entrusting our YMCA to create a safe and caring environment for their children to grow.<\/p>\r\n

In addition to a rich educational foundation, our curriculum extends further. With a commitment to healthy living, all of our child care programs teach children the importance of healthy minds and bodies through nutrition classes. We take these teachings one step further by offering numerous eight-week sessions of Y programs including swim lessons as well as sports and gymnastics classes for children to exert energy, improve physical activity, and develop new skills.<\/p>\r\n

Partnering with families, our Early Learning program nurtures every child and teaches the important values and skills to become engaged, productive citizens ready to make a difference in the world. <\/p>\r\n

WE CREATE LEARNING EXPERIENCES THROUGH RESEARCHED-BASED CURRICULA<\/h3>\r\n

Curriculum is created with specific and intentional purpose. Every learning interaction whether it be through literature, technology, peer interaction, physical fitness, or nutrition is embedded within a learning experience. Every interaction is used as a teachable moment, and children are provided with a safe space to take the academic risks needed tomake connections and learn. Our goal it to help all children become creative, confident thinkers. That\u2019s why we use The CreativeCurriculum\u00ae by TeachingStrategies\u00ae LLC. It is designed to help educators plan and implement a developmentally appropriate program.<\/p>\r\n

This curriculum focuses on all areas of development, including fine and gross motor skills, independent interaction in both small and large groups, as well as physical activities. All of our child care programs offer quality care in a safe supportive environment that fosters the emotional, physical, social, and cognitive growth of each child.<\/p>\r\n
