Our Drop-In Childcare facility focuses on enriching your child's life while you focus on getting fit. Children receive on-site care from responsible, trained staff. Your child participates in fun activities including arts and crafts, games and puzzles, songs, stories and indoor play.




Each month, we provide children with themed concepts, while incorporating phonemic awareness, math and critical thinking skills with fun play.  We allow children to express their creativity through music, art and verbal skills.
