Being a parent can feel like being a superhero, and handling your many responsibilities while also caring for your kids can be overwhelming at times. With AYS, you can focus on advancing your career and creating a better life for your family while we empower your kids to dream big and become their own superheroes, helping them develop skills to excel in school and in life – all in an environment that feels like home.

Enroll Now!

AYS now requires immunization records for each child prior to contract approval.
If your child’s immunization records are not already on file with AYS, please submit them here.

Must be enrolled three business days in advance of first day.

Program Details
Graphic that says "Locke-in Pricing: No increase through 2026."

Beginning this year, AYS will be moving to a weekly pricing structure, with no drop-in or single day options. This will allow us to create a more consistent and beneficial program for families that is a high quality, fun, and enriching week-long program, with weekly projects and activities that span multiple days to a full week, while also allowing us to better anticipate staffing needs and hire dedicated staff to serve your children.

As a mission-based, non-profit organization, we strive to maintain a consistent pricing structure for families while also sustaining enough income to cover operating costs. Therefore, to help provide peace of mind for our families, we are locking in our prices for the next three years, so you know what to expect.

Financial Assistance Options

Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Vouchers
AYS accepts CCDF vouchers and recommends that families who meet the guidelines for CCDF vouchers, apply. Click here for information on the voucher application process.

AYS Financial Assistance*
AYS provides limited financial assistance to families who are at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level, and uses the FSSA Child Care Income Eligibility Determination & Fee Schedule to determine assistance eligibility. As you complete your child’s enrollment application, you will have the option to submit a financial assistance application.

*Families are required to apply for CCDF vouchers before applying for AYS financial assistance.
