The YMCA Queensland's childcare services have been at the heart of Australian communities for more than 40 years, with our first early learning service opening in Brisbane in 1977 after we identified the need for childcare that focused on helping children grow in body, mind, and spirit.
YMCA Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) provides fun, stimulating, and safe care for primary and secondary school children before and after school. At OSHC, children have the opportunity to participate in cooking, sport, music, art, dance, and more.
