GOALS of the Child Watch Service 
The GOAL of this service is to provide Middlesex YMCA Members an opportunity to use the facility with the peace of mind knowing that their child is:
  • safe
  • well supervised by a membership exchange team member
  • engaged in conversation and activities

APRIL UPDATES
Spring Break from schools fills our Y with more children than usual. A YMCA licensed school vacation program will run in the downstairs from 7am-6pm for registered participants. 

Child Watch hours will run as normal, but there will be location changes for children ages 3 and above. Please be sure to check the glass lobby doors for daily updates. 

How long may my child stay?
All parents are asked to check back within 1 hour 15 minutes. Max usage limits may be set if:
  • there are 3 or more infants in the room 
  • there is a high staff to child ratio               (1 staff to 6 )
  • there is only 1 adult on duty
Please check the signs hanging on the glass doors for current status.
