We have limited immediate openings for October 2025 for children born between January 2020 and September 2022. If your child meets the age requirement, and you are interested in enrolling, please email us at ChildCare@ymcacalgary.org. Spaces are limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Families with a child on the centre’s waitlist will be contacted by a member of our team when a space, matching their child’s age, is available. Current registrations will be transferred to the next calendar year’s waitlist without additional charge.
The Government of Alberta’s Affordability Grant benefits families by reducing monthly fees. The affordability grant is applied to the full monthly fee for each child’s registration, reducing the amount the family pays for child care services.
