As such, our YMCA will be reopen in stages with different restrictions and responsibilities for members and staff.

YMCA EDUCATIONAL ACADEMYA YMCA Program in Support of Local School Districts and the Families of K-6th Grade Students in the Greater Nashua Region

SUPPORTING SCHOOLS, CHILDREN, FAMILIES AND OUR COMMUNITYAs a new school year begins and that school year looks different than any other, the YMCA is committed to providing families with safe and enriching child care while ensuring that students have support in any remote learning they are doing with their schools. The YMCA has been providing child care and summer camp programs to children since the middle of March in a safe, caring and responsible way and we are excited about expanding upon that work by equipping children with the tools they need to succeed academically and socially in this new environment.

REMOTE LEARNING... IN PERSON SUCCESSThroughout the day, students will have designated time to engage in remote learning with their schools. Quiet spaces will be provided for students to meet with their teachers, complete assignments and further their studies. Staff and volunteers will be available to help students with their remote work.

To enhance what the schools are offering, the YMCA is partnering with BellXcel to provide in-person curriculum using LitArt. Each day during the Brain Power Hour, YMCA staff and volunteers will lead students in fun, project based, grade appropriate educational activities in math, literacy and writing. This work will help students stay ahead throughout the school year.

DAYS, TIMES AND COSTOur program will run Monday-Friday from 8:00am-5:30pm with families dropping off and picking up within those times. To meet the varying schedules of area school districts, parents can register for various days within a week. Daily cost is $40 per day and will be drafted on a weekly basis.

Early Education and Child Care Programs

Kid’s Stop Babysitting (Ages 2 years to 12 years)

Early Education Center (Ages 6 weeks to 6 years)

At the Y, children learn how to be their best selves. That makes for confident kids today, and engaged adults tomorrow. Providing your child with a great place to have fun and make friends through activities that inspire physical and mental growth, teamwork and imagination is second only to child safety.

The Kid’s Stop is where kids go to have fun while their parents work out or swim in our facilities. This courtesy service is FREE with family memberships and is located inside all three of our YMCA branches: Merrimack, Nashua and Westwood Park. Parent/guardian must remain in the facility for the entire time the child is in Kid’s Stop.

The YMCA offers a structured learning environment that provides a strong emphasis on curriculum, which enhances all areas of child development. Our high quality programs are complemented with extension activities making use of the pool, aerobic and dance studios, gym and other spaces within our YMCA. This includes swim lessons, creative movement, gym class, art, science and music for all children enrolled.
