Youth Program
For Kids Only understands the changes that happen when your child begins school. We recognize the increased need for social acceptance and individual independence and the growing physical, intellectual, and social competence of school age children. Our programs aim to enhance these new and exciting developments through enriching learning opportunities in an upbeat and fun environment. Our NC licensed teachers encourage children’s social, emotional and academic developments through engaging and interest driven activities. Our programs for school-agers include before and after-school care, care for school holidays and closings, and an excitement filled summer day camp program for children up to age 12. We also offer transportation to and from area schools for before and after school students. For Kids Only accepts private paying families as well as DSS funded families in this program.
