PLAYGROUPS

Looking to connect with other parents and give your child a chance to play, explore, and socialize? Playgroups at the YW bring together families with similarly-aged children throughout the school year.

Each group is thoughtfully formed based on your child’s age and your preferred meeting times (weekday or weekends), using information you’ll share during registration. Groups explore local parks, libraries, and public spaces together, offering an easy, low-pressure way to meet other families in the community.

    • Groups run from October through June. Fall groups will be formed and shared with members by mid-October.
