Tailor-designed with the preschooler in mind, the YMCA Child Watch Area cares for your child(ren) during your time in the Adult Health & Wellness Fitness Center*.  Child Watch offers crafts, reading time, imagination play, puzzles and more.   Each month, our trained staff offer new activities, while keeping the YMCA principles: Caring, Respect, Honesty and Responsibility as our foundation. Nonmembers are welcome as well – simply pay a $5 daily guest pass fee (so you can exercise) and $3 for your child (for 2 hours of care).  At the Y, we’re looking for more ways to support families in our communities and your health is at the top of the priority list.

Child Watch is free with membership. Group fitness classes are free as well. Check out our Group Fitness schedule (check often – we’re adding classes all the time!).

Monthly membership rates are $28 for adults and $55 for families.  Our Joiners Fee is only $25 (and there are no other hidden costs!).  You sign no contract and can change or stop your membership at any time.

*Our Fitness Center is located at 900 Cannon Valley Drive, on the campus of the Northfield Retirement Center.
