The Metuchen Branch Y strives to provide a developmentally appropriate curriculum in a child-centered environment of warmth, friendliness and support. Your child will have opportunities for exploring, experimenting and questioning which will encourage curiosity, creativity and expression. We provide an opportunity to develop self-confidence, creativity. social skills, gross and fine motor skills. Since all children are individuals, we believe in developing the whole child emotionally, physically, intellectually and socially while meeting each child's own needs and learning styles. Choose from 2, 3, 4, or 5 day programs and full or half day.
