Description: As the largest provider of school-age programs in Frederick County, we help hundreds of children every day reach their fullest potential in a welcoming, supportive environment. By incorporating the values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility into all of our youth services programming, we give children the solid foundation they need to thrive—not only in school, but beyond.
Formerly called Kids Club, our Before and After School (B.A.S.E.) program operates from 6:30 a.m. until the regular school day begins, and after school from school dismissal until 6:30 p.m. We follow the Frederick County school calendar and offer care on days that school opens late or dismisses early. On most school closing days, we also provide child care at designated sites. Children are provided with a nutritious snack every afternoon.
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.

| Findings: LS confirmed with staff on site at the time of the incident that a child did in fact run out of the William R. Diggs Memorial Swimming Pool and was located by the police at the C. Burr Artz Public Library, .4 miles away. The child was last seen at approximately 2:40 p.m. on site. It was noticed that he was missing at approximately 2:45 p.m. The Director contacted her supervisor and then the police department. A police officer was able to locate the child and YMCA staff met them in front of the library at approximately 3:40 p.m. After interviewing the staff, it was stated that this child has special needs that have had to be addressed in the past. It was stated that one staff member told the child one set of instructions after he was told a initial set of instructions. The child appeared to be upset so staff informed him to go speak with the staff who told him something different. It is unclear where or what the child did after that point. | |||
