Youth and Family

The North Suburban YMCA is a family friendly organization designed to enhance the time children and parents spend together. From Family Gym or Family Swim time, to special events throughout the year, the North Suburban YMCA encourages families to interact and play together at the YMCA.

See full program quide for additional details.

We realize that there are times in which families may need to be apart for work or other obligations. That is why the North Suburban YMCA offers Winter, Spring, and Summer Camp programs, as well as Extreme Days off, which allow working parents to place their children in a loving and caring environment.

Extreme Days Off

Day off of school? Nowhere to go? Come to the NSYMCA and spend the day having fun! We offer a different field trip every time. Extreme Days Off will run on school holidays when all Northbrook school districts are out. We will be open from 7:00 am-6:00 pm. Parents may drop off anytime prior to 9:15 am and pick up anytime between 3:30 pm and 6:00 pm.
