Childwatch
Islands YMCA Child Watch is your answer to an uninterrupted healthy lifestyle! Children ages 6
weeks to 11 years old will be in the trusted care of our trained staff. There is a maximum time
guideline of 2 hours per child per day that allows you to pursue your YMCA activities and
interests. Age restrictions are monitored. Due to the possibility of food allergies, snacks are not
permitted in the Child Watch room at any time. For the safety of your child, we require that you
indicate your destination at our facility and sign in your child at drop-off and then out at pick-up.
Parents may not leave the facility while their children are in the Child Watch area.
