Whether you're looking for child care while you use our facilities or need to run some errands outside of the centre, we're here to help.
With our child care services, you can rest easy in the knowledge that your children are being cared for by qualified and experienced staff.
We offer two types of child care:
- creche: for children whose parent / guardian is present in the centre;
- occasional care: for children whose parent / guardian is leaving the centre.
Age range
We provide high quality care for children from eight weeks to five years old.
Opening hours
We're open some weekday mornings during the school term – take a look at our opening hours.
Prices
We offer a discounted rate for additional children – see our prices.

Enrolment procedures
Prior to using the creche, an enrolment form needs to be filled out for each child.
- Collect an enrolment form the front desk of the centre
- Complete the form and submit a hard copy to reception
- Alternatively, you can email the form to warragulcs@ymca.org.au if required (but we do prefer a hard copy)
- A new enrolment form will need to be completed each year
The information on the enrolment form authorises child care staff to act in case of emergency, and gives the centre important information regarding medical issues, allergies or custody details.
