The YMCA of Three Rivers is committed to better serving our communities, where and how they need us most.

For over 150 years, the YMCA has supported the needs of our communities in Guelph and Wellington Counties, Stratford-Perth, and Waterloo Region.

Quality care and education of all young children has a lasting impact on their ability to become healthy contributing members of our community.

Making meaningful connections and using effective communication you will develop strong relationships with children, families, educators, volunteers, and community partners.

You will support all ages and stages of development by ensuring the delivery of high quality licensed child care experiences that encourage children's exploration, play and inquiry, supported by Ontario's Pedagogy for the Early Years, How Does learning Happen? and YMCA Curriculum.

As a support to the supervisor you multitask to complete administrative responsibilities and adapt well to the changing needs of the centre.
