For nearly 132 years the Armed Services YMCA of Hampton Roads has been strengthening our military families.
As an ever-evolving and growing non-profit organization, and home to the largest concentration of military in the nation, we recognize the challenges associated with the military lifestyle and provide support programs specially designed to meet the unique needs of military families. We offer an array of no-cost and low-cost programs and services. Unlike your neighborhood Y, we do NOT have paid memberships, pools or fitness equipment. We have core programs that focus primarily on child development initiatives to enhance cognitive development and social-emotional growth and connection while providing skills to strengthen resilience. Our impact in the lives of our families is real.

Our Five Star Kids Pre-School Teachers should expect to work each day excited and ready to make a difference in our children's lives. They will use crayons and puzzles instead of computers and projectors and joyfully conduct playtime on our spacious NEW playground. Additionally, they will construct a creativity-driven classroom arrangement of child-size tables, toys, and books conducive to learning. Along with the co-teachers, they develop weekly lesson plans around our fantastic Big Day in Pre-K curriculum to ignite the curiosity and growth within our preschoolers. Each child's growth will be monitored through observations, portfolio documentation, developmental checklists, and the use of assessment data (ASQ) to ensure all students are meeting important learning milestones.
