Child Watch – West Side Y

BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE

A new, interactive Child Watch space will open at the West Side Y on January 1, 2019.  Until then, please be patient with our progress during this exciting time of construction and renovation.  Great things are on the horizon for our Y kids!

West Side Y Child Watch Changes Effective October 1, 2018:

• New Location:  Drop your children off at the new Program Pavilion (formerly the Outdoor Pool building).  Look for signage in the lower parking lot to point you in the right direction!
• Security: 
  • We are still using RollCall, our computerized check-in/check-out sticker system for parent identification at pick-up.
  • All Child Watch and Multi-Purpose rooms in the Program Pavilion are monitored with video surveillance for your children’s safety.
• Diapers:  We are happy to change your child’s diaper (with signed permission) during this 90-day transition period since Child Watch and classes/fitness will temporarily be in separate buildings.  Permission slips are available at Child Watch check-in.  A private restroom is located inside the temporary Child Watch area for older children.
• Outdoor Play:  A portion of the outdoor pool deck has been fenced off for safe outdoor play.
• Snacks:  A growing number of our littlest members have serious food allergies.  In an effort to keep all kids safe while spending time with us at the Y, we will no longer allow snacks in Child Watch.

We can’t wait to share a brand new space with you and your kids!
