Early Childhood Department

Youth Director, Gina Malsky

We want your children to have the best programs and facilities available to them so that they can become active and energetic participants in our community. Our Early Childhood Deparment is designed especially with your children's growth and development in mind.
The JCC offers a Kinderlach Program for two and three year olds. This program is designed to be an effective first school experience. Children must be two by September 30 of the school year they attend.
The early childhood programming continues in the afternoon with the Kids Korner After School Program. This program is for children in first through sixth grade and aims to encourage all children to keep learning and growing after the school bell rings.
On Sundays, children ages three to nine can take part in Sunday Programs where they will experience a wide variety of activites.
If you are interested in hosting a birthday party for your child at the JCC, we provide Center-ific parties that will give your child an exciting way to celebrate their special day.
For more information on these programs, contact Gina Malsky at the JCC at 824-4646.
