Buffalo Grove Before and After School Care

Before and After School Care Open to D102 K-5th Graders

JCYS Buffalo Grove offers kindergarten through 5th-grade children the opportunity to start and/or end their day in a comfortable and engaging setting. Smaller class sizes and multiple play spaces ensure your child receives individualized attention and opportunities to participate in hands-on experiences with peers. The environment will nurture your child’s creativity and exploration and help them develop character by using teachable moments to foster growth throughout their time in the program.

In Before Care, JCYS staff provide children with a cold breakfast, quiet activities, and games to start the school day. In After Care, JCYS staff members provide a time for children to relax, eat snacks, and engage in including cooking, arts, and crafts. Additionally, the full-size gymnasium offers opportunities to enjoy games and sports. JCYS boasts beautiful outdoor space, and when the weather is nice, the school-aged children can enjoy fresh air on our sports court, create games in our large field area, or play games of gaga!
