Room to explore a bigger world.
Y Academy toddler care at the Merrimack YMCA gives busy toddlers a safe, joyful place to explore, play and learn, with two classrooms (Toddler One and Toddler Two) so children can grow at their own pace.
Simple choices, stories, songs and hands-on activities help toddlers build language and curiosity. Our day balances active exploration with predictable routines, so children feel confident about what comes next.
From washing hands to joining circle time, everyday moments give toddlers chances to try things for themselves. Teachers guide them in sharing space, taking turns and making friends. Every child's progress looks different, and you're part of the conversation.
We'll talk with you about your child's age, development and available space to find the best fit. A tour is a great time to ask about transitions, toilet learning and a typical day.
Talk with our team about where your child is with toilet learning. Teachers and families work together on readiness and routines.
Our team looks at your child's age and development, and explains placement and current openings.
