A safe place for kids when you’re on the run

THE creche at Cardinia Life YMCA is run by highly qualified and committed childcare professionals.
The creche offers a fully licensed facility dedicated to enhancing developmental assets in all young children.
Set within a serviced gym, the creche is available to members and is also available for Occasional Care bookings.
Sessions are run every weekday and children are encouraged to participate in music, art and drama activities or simply play in a well supervised and safe setting.
The childcare professionals will take care of the little ones while parents take in a group fitness class, swim a few laps or even play in the Wednesday morning ladies netball competition. Take advantage of the Occasional Care service to shop or even catch up with a friend.
Until the end of April, get five free creche sessions and no joining fee with a Health and Wellness membership (conditions apply).
Visit and have a look at the creche in action, at 4 Olympic Way, Pakenham, phone 5945 2888.
