Elementary Childcare Options
Last spring, the Pelham Public Schools, in collaboration with the Town of Pelham Recreation Department, launched a survey seeking to gauge interest in additional before and after school childcare options. The survey results showed significant interest in additional programming, however based on application volume the Pelham Children’s Center and Playful Wonders/Jr. Wonder are currently able to meet these needs at their traditional sites. Should enrollments increase, additional sites will be considered.
Below, please find specific information about each program, including how to register.
We hope that many Pelham families will take advantage of these opportunities and we will continue to work with our partners to expand offerings as additional needs arise.
