Extended Care Day Camp at Camp W*K

At Camp W*K, our extended care day camp program is designed to meet the needs of busy families while ensuring campers continue to enjoy a safe, structured, and engaging environment beyond regular camp hours. For campers in PreK and Kindergarten, we’ve crafted extended care options that are both convenient and enriching.

What Is Extended Care Day Camp?

Extended care day camp services allow our youngest campers to remain at camp after standard dismissal times, giving parents extra flexibility during busy weekdays. At Camp W*K, we understand that schedules don’t always align neatly with pickup windows, so our extended care bridges the gap with trusted supervision, meaningful activities, and plenty of fun.

Standard Camp Hours

To better understand our extended care options, here’s a quick look at the regular day camp schedule:

  • PreK and Kindergarten: 8:30 AM – 4:00 PM

  • 1st to 6th Grade: 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM

If you’re a parent of a PreK or Kindergarten camper, or have children in multiple age groups, our extended care day camp program can make a big difference in your daily routine.

Extended Care for PreK and Kindergarten

Our extended care day camp programming extends the day for PreK and Kindergarten campers until 5:00 PM. This optional service provides a smooth and joyful end to your child’s day, packed with age-appropriate activities like:

  • Guided free play

  • Creative crafts

  • Outdoor games

  • Quiet time and story sessions

Cost: $15 per child, per day
Hours Covered: 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Who’s Eligible: All PreK and K campers

Parents can choose extended care on a daily or weekly basis, offering the flexibility to match changing schedules.

Free Extended Care for Siblings

Have an older camper in grades 1 through 6? We’ve made things easier for you.

If you’re picking up a 1st–6th grade camper at 5:00 PM, your younger camper in PreK or K can stay until the same time, at no additional cost. No special registration required. We automatically enroll siblings in our extended care day camp plan so that families stay on one convenient pickup schedule.
