Our outside school hours care (OSHC) programs include before school care and after school care, which prepare children for the school day ahead and keep the fun going after school ends!

With more than 30 locations in schools, recreation and community spaces across Victoria, we're proud to deliver high-quality education and care that supports busy families and ensures children have amazing experiences.

Leaders in outside school hours care

For more than 30 years, we've run OSHC programs that inspire children to grow, learn and have fun.

Children are at the heart of everything we do, and we work closely with families and schools to support the needs of every child.

We're committed to child safety and creating inclusive environments that celebrate and respect all aspects of diversity.

With us, families can count on welcoming, supportive programs that children love coming back to every single day.

Our OSHC programs qualify for Child Care Subsidy

With the Child Care Subsidy (CCS), eligible families can enjoy reduced fees for our OSHC programs. This includes before and after school care, school holiday programs and pupil free day programs.

The amount of CCS families receive will depend on their individual circumstances, but could be up to 90% in savings.

Visit our Child Care Subsidy page for more information about how CCS works.

We're part of the Y

Our outside school hours care programs are run by Y Victoria, a not-for-profit organisation that has been supporting Victorian communities since 1853.

As part of the YMCA family, we share a mission to inspire and empower young people and communities to thrive. And as a not-for-profit, we reinvest all profits into improving our services and supporting local communities.

We also work in partnership with schools and councils to deliver our OSHC programs. Together with our partners, we’re building brighter futures for children and families across Victoria.
