Your child will have fun with Out of School Time.

YMCA Out of School Time (OST) is an all-day, Monday through Friday childcare program that offers a combination of free-choice and structured activities for children ages five to nine.

Nationwide no one cares for more children than the YMCA. At the Y, we believe all kids deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. Our programs provide an exciting, safe community for young people to explore the outdoors, build self-esteem, develop interpersonal skills, and make lasting friendships and memories. They also help reinforce the YMCA's four core values of caring, respect, responsibility, and honesty.

The key to your child's experience is our talented and dedicated staff team. They are the key leadership and heart of our programs. They work very hard to help each child feel successful and to know they are cared about.

MEET OUR STAFF

Alexis Gutierrez

I am the School Age Childcare Director. I have been at the YMCA since 2013 and I am really excited for this summer and all the fun that lies ahead. I began my YMCA career in youth sports and have worked in several different departments since then. This summer, we are hoping to give the children an experience of a lifetime and hopefully many fond memories for them to look back on.
