Metuchen Edison Woodbridge YMCA - Child Care Services

Harborview Child Care Center

Edgar Child Care Center Harborview Child Care Center opened its doors in 1998. The Center is a co-sponsored program between the Metuchen Edison Woodbridge YMCA and First Presbyterian Church of Perth Amboy. We are open Monday through Friday from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm. The Center operates from September through August for children 2 to 5 years of age. Harborview Child Care Center is under contract with the Perth Amboy School District and the State of New Jersey to provide preschool services to all 3 and 4 year old residents of Perth Amboy.

There are four rooms in operation with the present capacity to serve 60 children per day.

Programs:

The children are grouped by three different ages: 2’s, 3s and 4’s. Each group is situated in separate areas of the Center where specialized programs have been designed based upon the needs of each specific age group. The program follows The Creative Curriculum ®by Teaching Strategies Inc. This carefully designed, research-based curriculum complements the YMCA philosophy to provide a comprehensive, developmentally appropriate, educational experience for the children enrolled in our program.

Activities:

The children 3 years and older are eligible to attend field trips to various places of interest (farms, museums, theaters, parks, summer swim lessons, etc.). Jennifer Woerner
