Child Care
The Richmond YMCA offers a variety of options for childcare.
Y-Care – After School Care
The Y-Care program provides a safe, caring, fun and educational atmosphere. Children are assisted in developing self-esteem, learning cooperative skills and are asked to practice the YMCA core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. Our program is aligned with the school day and supports students’ learning. We focus on addressing the needs of individual students by offering tutoring support and reinforce learning that takes place in the classroom in new and exciting ways.
If you’d like to get the enrollment process started for your child, you can use the links below. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to email us: ryang@richmondfamilyymca.org or call us at (765)962-7504

It has communication tools as well as a social media feature that allows us to post pictures and videos of your kids having FUN!
Y-Watch – Child Watch
When parents come to the Y for a class, group activity or workout, their kids need a safe, enriching environment where they can build healthy, trusting relationships with other kids and adults. At Y-Watch, children play under the supervision of caring, trained Y Staff. At the same time, their parents are able to relax, connect with other Y members and enjoy healthy activities at the Y.
Y-Watch is available free of charge to children whose parents are family members of the Y. Parents may leave their children at Y-Watch for a maximum of two hours per day and must be in the Richmond Family YMCA facility while their children are in our care.
