At Family Camp childcare is available for children between the ages of 2* and 7 years old.
Childcare is offered at meal times as well as during the morning program time from 9am to noon. Our morning childcare program is divided into two or three groups depending on the number and ages of children at Family Camp. In general, we have a preschool group and a school age group. Each group is led by two counselors who will have fun activities planned for the morning. We will provide your child with a healthy snack mid-morning.
The following is a sample childcare schedule:

*For our youngest participants who are not toilet trained, we ask that parents remain with their child or nearby where they are accessible to our staff.
Meal time childcare offers younger kids time for supervised play while allowing parents to linger over a meal and chat with family and friends.
Some of our staff may be available to provide childcare outside these designated times. Their availability and compensation should be negotiated directly with them. We are happy to connect you with those of our staff who we know would like to have extra work during their off time.
