BLAIR REGIONAL YMCA members can utilize Child Watch time at our Hewit Street YMCA Building. Walk-ins are welcome and reservations are not needed. If you have any questions call in to the Y at: (814) 695-4467, Extension #201.

The BLAIR REGIONAL YMCA provides FREE supervision of children ages 6 months – 9 years in the Child Watch Room. This service is only for family and youth members participating in the YMCA classes or programs (Maximum 90 minutes per day). Parents and/or guardians must remain in the building during this time. All children under the age of 9 are REQUIRED to be placed in Child Watch if the child is not under DIRECT supervision of an adult.

The following guidelines and procedures apply:

• Check with Child Watch Staff on Sign-In/Sign-Out procedures.
• The person signing the child in must be the same person signing the child out, unless permission is given for another adult to sign out that child.
• YMCA Staff are not permitted to change diapers, but will locate the parent and/or guardian in the facility when a child needs a change. Please change your child’s diaper or take your child to the restroom before entering Child Watch.
• Sick children are NOT permitted in Child Watch. A sick child is defined as a child who has a fever within the last 24 hours, diarrhea, vomiting, rash or open sores, cough, cold symptoms, lice, etc.
• Child Watch Staff will NOT administer medication to your child.
• There is at least one staff person on site who is trained in first aid, CPR, and rescue breathing.
