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. Your child will experience the extraordinary care of Mrs. Helen Blair, PDS Extended Day veteran teacher, and her staff. They’ll 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.

Drop off your child at the Dining Hall Annex located in the MacMahon Fine Arts building by parking in adjacent marked spaces and walking your camper inside. Follow the same procedure for pick up. Staff will check your child in and out.

Before Care begins at 7am. Staff will walk campers to their first camp. Camp counselors will bring children back to After Care at 4 pm where they will enjoy a snack and supervised activity and/or play time. Final pick-up is 6 pm. Be aware a late fee will be incurred for pick up after 6 pm. If you require both Before Care AND After Care, you should register for Complete Care. This includes both services and provides a $10 discount.

Change in Lunch Care

If you are a returning family, you’re probably familiar with Lunch Care. This service provided lunchtime supervision of half-day campers choosing to eat lunch on campus. Children were required to pack a lunch or bring money to purchase.

THIS summer, lunch itself is included if you purchase the corresponding Session Lunch in your registration account. No need to remember a lunchbox or money! Campers still receive the caring supervision of our Extended Care professionals. A summer lunch menu can be found in the Calendar section.

Please note that ALL-DAY campers receive lunch automatically; no need to register for Lunch. This includes Full-Day campers as well as campers choosing TWO Half-Day camps in the same session.

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.

A chart summarizing Extended Care services is available here.
