About Y's Kids Club (YKC)
Due to declining enrollments and a difficult economy, on January 12, 2009, YWCA St. Paul announced that we will be closing our licensed child care program -- Y's Kids Club.
For several years, YKC has operated at a deficit. Program fees, donations and institutional funding did not cover the expense of operating the program. Although we are proud of the exceptional service YKC has provided, we simply must redirect our efforts and resources.
The program is no longer accepting new enrollments and will close its doors by March 31, 2009.
To assist families seeking licensed child care, staff has compiled a list of local providers who are currently accepting new enrollments. St. Paul Public Schools also offers a search tool and listing of after school offerings at http://choicecatalog.spps.org. Additional resources are available by contacting Resources for Child Caring and Referral Network online at www.mnchildcare.org or by phone at (651) 665-0150.
