Kids’ Connection, the Y’s popular after school program, offers a variety of activities for students in kindergarten through the sixth grade. Kids’ Connection offers an array of age-appropriate activities designed to increase self-awareness, enhance social interaction and help develop each child’s physical skills in an encouraging environment. We offer homework time, sports, arts, trips and many other favorite activities, including swim lessons, cooking, martial arts and Fun Science! With our first rate specialists and well-trained counselor staff, we make sure your children are in a safe environment where they can develop socially and enjoy various recreational and cultural arts activities.

Depending on each school’s level of enrollment, Kids’ Connection will pick up students at PS 98, 152, 178, 187, 278, Muscota, Amistad, and Our Lady Queen of Martyrs schools. Since we have our own school buses, we can expand pickups to more schools if there is enough demand. When it’s time to go home, buses will leave the Y at 5:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday and weave their way around Washington Heights and Inwood to bring children home. There is an additional fee for transportation.

We also offer Birthday Parties and amazing Kids' Dance and Kids' Sports programs.
