Families can support their preschooler by giving them opportunities to cook, pour their own drinks, clean up their own spills, put their own dishes away, and sort silverware. Providing these experiences helps children understand the impact that they have on the community around them and can make stronger connections between home and school.
The Teacher's Role In Our Preschool Program
THE TEACHER’S ROLE IN THE PRESCHOOL PROGRAM
Teachers will observe preschoolers interacting with the space around them, the materials, and other children to gain a deeper understanding about the children’s individual developmental needs. The teacher will use these observations to plan for the environment and experiences to support unique needs. Teachers will use what the children say or ask to help enhance the children’s knowledge of their personal interests.

Survey
Dear Parent/Guardian,
YMCA Childcare Services is required to supply information about Y programs in 2020 to fulfill the requirements of a grant from the City of Fort Wayne that subsidized some Y program expenses during that time. Because your child(ren) participated in a YMCA child care program in 2020 we need your help to gather some information. You can find the survey below. Please fill out the survey once for each of your children.
