Summer Day Camp

Summer is a blast with YMCA Camps!  We offer a variety of unique experience for children ages 5-12! Children enjoy weekly crafts and activities that are specially designed to engage them in the arts and sciences.  Our Summer Day Camps are licensed programs through the State of Washington, which allows us to accept state pay participation (DSHS). Our hours of operation at the sites are 6:30am-6:00pm throughout the summer.

KidKiosk

The State of Washington has mandated that licensed Child Care providers track attendance electronically.  Our YMCA's school age child care, preschool and camp sites are now using KidKiosk to keep attendance for electronic Sign in/Out.  With KidKiosk you will be able to sign your child in/Out of the YMCA program. You will also be able to add/Remove Drop off and Pick up Authorizations through KidKiosk.

KidKiosk PIN

  • All authorized individuals will be issued a 4-digit PIN. This PIN is specifically linked to each person’s email. ALL authorized persons dropping off AND picking up will be responsible for using their own PIN and electronic signature to check a child IN and OUT. This PIN may not be shared.

KidKiosk Parent Portal

  • Only the primary parent/guardian’s email is authorized to log into KidKiosk’s Parent Portal using their email as the username and the 4-digit PIN as the password. To access the Parent Portal, go to KidKiosk.com then select the “Parent Tab” to log in.
  • The Parent Portal allows the parent to add/change check in and out authorizations. Any additional people that are needing to be authorized to check in/out a child will have to be added by the primary parent/guardian in KidKiosk.

PARENT/GUARDIAN ROLES

What does it mean to be the primary parent/guardian?

  • The primary parent/guardian will have access to WebTime and KidKiosk. Only the primary parent/guardian’s email will be used to log into and access these programs.
  • The primary and secondary parent/guardian will receive notification emails when another authorized person checks a child in and out.
  • If parents are co-parenting, we recommend using a primary email that both parents have access to. Please keep in mind that the secondary parent/guardian must have their own email to receive their own personalized PIN.

What does it mean to be the secondary parent/guardian?

  • The secondary parent/guardian will be able to access WebTime BUT ONLY if the primary parent share’s their account log in information.
  • The secondary parent/guardian will be added to KidKiosk and receive their personalized PIN via the email they provided during registration.
