Description: Y Journeys in Enrichment Before and After School brings learning and fun together in a safe, convenient and nurturing environment where character development is as important as skill development. We provide enriching activities that reinforce lessons learned in the classroom during those critical before and after school hours. Y Journeys Enrichment programs are primarily located inside your child's elementary or middle school, and some are also offered at various Y of Central Maryland family centers. Transportation is provided for some locations and for many locations, hours start as early as 7:00am and end as late as 6:00pm.
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.
