Description: Our mission at the YMCA of Catawba Valley is to provide Child Watch in a safe and healthy environment and to provide parents peace of mind while enjoying the programs and facilities.
Children ages 6 weeks to 8 years-old have a fun, safe place to play while their parent(s) work out. Child Watch is free with a family membership. Please inquire at the Service Center or Child Watch area for a list of operating hours and Child Watch rules.
Due to demand, there is a 90-minute limit per child in Child Watch. Please do not bring sick children to Child Watch. At certain times, Child Watch may be filled to maximum capacity.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
