Lack of affordable childcare is at a critica level in NEPA. As a result, the Greater Scranton YMCA will renovate outdated mechanical space on our second floor into two new daycare areas and a new infant care space. This $1 million project will allow us to accommodate additional children and infants to help address the need for affordable and safe childcare in our community.

The Greater Scranton YMCA’s Infant Program serves children six weeks through one year and promotes a standard of quality essential for growth and development in the first year of life. Certified teachers provide a nurturing, safe and stimulating small group environment. The play-centered Toddler Program serves children ages 1–2 who are guided through development in learning areas aligned with age-appropriate Pennsylvania Learning standards.

Construction is estimated to begin in winter, 2024. Help us meet the critical community need for safe, dependable childcare!
