About
YMCA School-Age Before and After School Care offers a balanced mix of open play, structured activities, and daily moderate to vigorous physically active sessions. The program limits digital device use to homework, academic enrichment, or programs that actively engage children in physical activity.
• Ages: 5–11 years old
• Schedule: Before-school care from 6:30 AM until the start of the school day and after-school care from the end of the school day until 6:00 PM, with school-year sessions running 08/28/25–06/30/26 or 09/02/25–06/30/26 depending on site
• Price: Pricing for 2025–26 School Year Before & After-School ONLY and PLUS plans ranges from $177 to $813, with a one-time $50 registration fee
The program focuses on a balanced schedule of open play and structured activities, with every activity described as designed to spark imagination and encourage lifelong positive values. Daily plans include at least thirty minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity, held outdoors when weather permits, and digital device use is limited to homework, academic enrichment, or physically active programs. Program materials state a focus on social-emotional skill building, leadership development, service learning, college and career exploration, arts education, global learning, 21st century skills, family engagement, academics, health and wellness, and interactive learning centers. The program notes that elementary-aged youth participate in a safe and supported environment with opportunities to learn and lead, and that programs support academic achievement, foster health and wellness, instill positive social emotional learning, and create opportunities for youth and families to belong and connect.
For the 2025–26 school year, Before-School Care ONLY is listed at $177 for 2 days, $266 for 3 days, and $407 for 5 days per week. After-School Care ONLY is listed at $342 for 2 days, $443 for 3 days, and $537 for 5 days per week. Combined Before and After-School Care ONLY is listed at $462 for 2 days, $633 for 3 days, and $724 for 5 days per week. School-Age Care PLUS plans list Before-School Care Plus at $634, After-School Care Plus at $729, and Before and After-School Care Plus at $813. Participants in School-Age Care PLUS plans have full-day care on non-school days included in their cost of care, while participants in School-Age Care ONLY plans pay for each non-school day of care at the time of registration. Priority registration for families enrolled in a School-Age Care PLUS plan opens two weeks before each non-school day, and non-school day registration opens to everyone one week before the day of care.
The program states that scholarship options are available so that everyone has an opportunity to experience the Y, and that it accepts participants paid through Working Connections Child Care, DCYF, DSHS, or other third-party pay options. Additional schools served are described as locations from which children may be transported to a YMCA School-Age Care location, with transportation possibly provided by the YMCA or the school district if available. Pre-enrollment is required as the first step before registration is finalized. A Certificate of Immunization Status (CIS) is required in order for a child to participate in YMCA care.
The YMCA of Snohomish County notes a mission “to inspire, nurture, and strengthen culturally vibrant communities through youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.” It will celebrate its 125th anniversary in 2026. The organization reports community involvement that includes partnering with the Chill Foundation to provide a snowboard program for teens, hosting MLK Day of Service projects throughout Snohomish and Island Counties, and using a $100,000 Global Engagement Grant from Boeing to sustain and expand hands-on STEM programs. The YMCA of Snohomish County lists this $100,000 Global Engagement Grant from Boeing as a credential and award.
