HOW TO REGISTER

Registration will open for Summer 2020 in January. Registrations are accepted on a first come, first served basis. Once a program has filled, a wait list is formed. 

To help our camp directors and counselors prepare for their camp, online registration closes at 9am each Friday for the upcoming camp session. Late registrations will be accepted in person on the first day of camp only, on a space-available basis.

Extended Care

Summer at Providence Day offers early morning and late afternoon care for campers in rising grades TK-8 through our Extended Care program. Our staff will ensure your child begins and ends the day with fun, safe, age-appropriate activities. Healthy snacks, lots of activity choices (games, crafts, books, outdoor play), and close supervision are hallmarks of this program. Registration for Extended Care is online through your CampInTouch registration account.

Before Care: We open our doors at 7 a.m. and welcome campers to start their day with us. Our staff will walk campers to their 9:00 camp.

After Care: Camp counselors will bring children back to After Care at 4 p.m. where they will enjoy a snack and supervised activity and/or play time. Final pick-up is 6 p.m. Be aware a late fee will be incurred for pick up after 6 p.m.

If you require both Before Care AND After Care, you should register for Complete Care. This includes both services and provides a $10 discount.

 

Lunch Care

If your child is enrolled in ONE half-day camp and wishes to lunch with us, register for the corresponding Lunch Session in your registration account. No need to remember a lunchbox or money! Campers receive a delicious lunch through Flik Dining as well as the caring supervision of our Extended Care professionals. A printable lunch menu can be found in the Camp Dining section.

Campers who enroll in TWO HALF-DAY camps or a FULL-DAY camp receive lunch at no charge!

Drop-in Care

We know life can throw a wrench in your plans sometimes, and our Drop-In Care is here to help. You may bring your child to Extended Care during normal operating hours for an hourly charge of $15/hour for any portion of the hour. For example, arrival prior to 8 am or pick-up after 5 pm will be charged for two hours ($30).

Drop-In Lunch runs from 12-1 pm, and pick-up takes place at 1 pm in the Carpool Loop (Ferryboat).
