2025-26 Before and After School Child Care
Where Kids Excel Before and After the Bell
Many parents or caregivers have workdays that start before school or end after school finishes. The Y is here to support working families with Before and After School Child Care in dozens of area elementary schools. Our programs offer a combination of free choice and structured activities including arts & crafts, exploration, service learning, healthy activity, homework support, character development and conflict resolution. Like everything we do, our child care programs are built upon our core values of caring, honesty, respect, responsibility and fun. Our programs and staff are state-licensed, and Madison sites are city-accredited. All sites accept Wisconsin Shares, and Madison sites accept city funding.
If the district is closed on any day our program will not be in operation.
If your family is interested in care for the current school year, please call:
- East Y: 608-906-8656
- West Y: 608-906-8818
- Sun Prairie Y: 608-478-4310
