CHILD CARE - THE YMCA OF READING AND BERKS COUNTY IS ONE OF THE LARGEST PROVIDERS OF CHILDCARE IN BERKS COUNTY. THE YMCA PROVIDES HIGH QUALITY CHILDCARE BY PROVIDING COMPREHENSIVE, AGE APPROPRIATE ACTIVITIES FOR INFANTS THROUGH SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN AT TWO FULL DAY CENTERS AND TEN BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL LOCATIONS. WE PROVIDE FULL AND PART TIME OPTIONS AT ALL LOCATIONS, AS WELL AS SECOND SHIFT CARE AT OUR READING LOCATION, TO SERVE A WIDE RANGE OF FAMILY SCHEDULING NEEDS. WOVEN INTO THE FABRIC OF THE YMCA MISSION IS A COMMITMENT TO STRENGTHEN FAMILIES. YMCA CHILDCARE PROGRAMS RELIEVE THE BURDEN OF BALANCING WORK AND FAMILY AND MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR PARENTS OF CHILDREN IN OUR CARE TO REMAIN GAINFULLY EMPLOYED, KNOWING THAT THEIR CHILDREN ARE THRIVING IN A SAFE, DEVELOPMENTALLY SOUND ENVIRONMENT. THE YMCA COLLABORATES WITH OTHER SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES TO PROVIDE SUBSIDY FOR CHILDCARE FEES AND SUPPORTIVE SERVICES FOR PARENTS AND CHILDREN. ALL YMCA CHILDCARE CENTERS ARE LICENSED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES AND ARE KEYSTONE STARS QUALITY-RATED.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2020 – Dec 31, 2020Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$2.4MProgram 2 [2020]
