Description: The Montclair YMCA’s SACC Programs are a great place for children to be in the morning and afternoon. It is designed to meet the needs of today’s working parents and their children. Participants in the SACC Programs are involved in age appropriate activities, which are planned and supervised by experienced staff. All school age programs are licensed by the state of New Jersey. All programs stress the YMCA’s “character development” values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
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.
