Y Guided Discovery Preschool - Meridian (Ages 3-5)

Now Enrolling Part-Time Preschool!

In Y Guided Discovery Preschool and Collaborative Preschool, in partnership with local school districts, children participate in academic enrichment activities, reading and math exploration, social-emotional development, physical activity, arts & crafts, outdoor fun, and play.

Our positive, safe environments foster opportunities for children to make new friends, do better in school, develop new skills, enjoy more physical activity, and live with caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.

We believe everyone belongs at the Y. No one is turned away due to the inability to pay. We accept Idaho Child Care Program (ICCP) and have financial assistance available. To learn more: [email protected] or 208 344 5502 ext. 277.
