Description: All Sewickley Valley YMCA School Age Child Care programs are licensed by the Department of Public Welfare and ensure that the time before and after school is occupied creatively and constructively. All of our school age programs will incorporate S.T.E.A.M. into their thematic curriculum. Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math are an integral part of each child’s learning experience.
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.
