Coming soon – YMCA Eastleigh Nursery and Community Centre
YMCA Eastleigh will be our newest YMCA, opening Winter 2020 in a brand new, purpose-built facility. Designed to support the new residents of North Stoneham Park as well as the wider Eastleigh town, YMCA wants to be at the heart of this emerging community. We will offer a full day care nursery, café, sports hall, dedicated space for young people, meeting rooms and health facilities.
Nursery
YMCA is already well known for its high quality nursery care. At YMCA Eastleigh, your child will experience opportunities to explore, discover and develop in a fantastic light and airy space, looked after by a dedicated and caring team. Your child will have daily opportunities to get messy, be physically active and express their creativity and development. Our large nursery garden will provide ample opportunities for active play and exploration.
Open Monday – Friday, 8am – 6pm all year round, we will support children from 4 months to 5 years.
Free childcare
We welcome children with an entitlement to 2 and 3 year old funding – visit the Hampshire County Council website to check your eligibility.
Your child is entitled to 15 hours of free childcare per week from the term after their 3rd birthday.
If you are in work, you could be entitled to an additional 15 hours of free childcare. To find out if you are eligible for the additional 15 hours please visit www.childcarechoices.gov.uk.
Community space
Our community spaces will be for everyone to use – you can take part in our programmes or run your own. Our spaces will be available to hire, whether for regular exercise sessions in our sports hall, parent toddler groups of a one off party or special event.
There will be a double height sport and community hall, a health room and a range of meeting rooms. Our community team will be working with you to put together a range of programmes to meet your needs.
Café
Join us for a cup of tea and cake! Have a coffee after dropping your child off in nursery, meet a friend for lunch or bring your group together for their regular natter. Our catering team will also cater for your community events held around the centre.
Youth room
Our dedicated youth room will provide a space for young people to meet, socialise and take part in activities and programmes.
