Child Care at the Bayer YMCA

YMCA camps offer kids a chance to explore places, activities and ideas outside their normal lives. At camp, they discover new talents, new interests and new friends. Parents have trusted YMCA camps for generations, because we offer experiences that help foster leadership, self-confidence, and deepen respect for the environments and communities we live in. We offer a huge variety of camp themes, so there’s always a place for your kids at Y camp.

While you're increasing your heart rate, your kids can play, release some energy and make new friends in a supervised, caring environment - all free with your Y family membership. Your kids will have fun with age-appropriate toys, games, and activities. Children ages 6 weeks to 12 years are welcome up to 3 hours per day and parent/guardian must remain at the Y.

For those times when you can’t be there yourself, the Y provides a safe, nurturing environment where your child will learn, grow and thrive. Our Early Childhood Centers are licensed by the State of Missouri and all child care staff members receive extensive training through the national YMCA of the USA as well as through the Gateway Region YMCA.

Enjoy your day off from school with the Y. When school is closed, students can still enjoy a day full of fun, activities, games, crafts, swimming, and more!
