Our School Age Child Care programs in the Mount Sinai, Rocky Point, and Shoreham-Wading River School Districts provide safe, stimulating environments before and after school filled with positive experiences and numerous opportunities for recreation, enrichment, and building life skills! More than just child care, we focus on age-appropriate activities to promote physical, emotional, and social well-being in our youth:

 Arts and Crafts - Games - Indoor & Outdoor Play - Reading Time - Homework Time
Wellness Activities - Positive Socialization - Special Events and More!


You can feel good about trusting NSYC to ensure happy, stress-free days for your kids. We serve families five days a week when school is in session, Monday thru Friday, in the mornings and afternoons--right in your child's own elementary school! Our staff are fingerprinted, background checked, trained, and experienced in working with children to provide proactive supervision and encourage safe and appropriate interactions at all times. Our programs are licensed and regulated by the State of New York Office of Children and Family Services.

parent/guardian handbook
Our Parent/Guardian Handbook is an important resource designed to help families understand our School Age Child Care Programs. Updated annually, the handbook contains detailed information about our program policies, procedures, expectations, health and safety guidelines, registration requirements, payment policies, and other essential information to help ensure a positive experience for every child and family.
​
The handbook is available online for parents and guardians to review at any time. As part of the registration process, all families are required to read and acknowledge the Parent/Guardian Handbook before enrolling their child in our programs.
Procare instructions
To help make the registration process as smooth as possible, we've created step-by-step Procare Instructions that walk you through creating your Procare account and registering your child for our School Age Child Care Programs. Whether you're a new family creating an account for the first time or a returning family registering for a new program, these instructions will guide you through each step of the process.

Please feel free to download and review these instructions at any time. If you have any questions or need assistance along the way, our team is happy to help.
billing information
Every parent/guardian must have a credit card or bank account on file and fill out the Tuition Express Automated Payment Processing Form.

Billing for the school year will be done via e-mail. Every registration application must contain an accurate email address for this purpose. Billing is done on the 1st of the month for the current month. If you do not receive an email invoice, please contact the office to ensure that we have the correct email address on file; you are still responsible for payments. You can also view your billing statement and balance by logging into your account.

Payments are due by the 7th of the month and can be made by personal check, money order, cash, Visa, MasterCard, AMEX, or Discover. If paying by cash, the exact amount is required. Any returned checks will be charged a $20 bank fee, and all future payments must be made by cash, money order, or card. Please make checks payable to North Shore Youth Council, P.O. Box 1286, Rocky Point, NY 11778, or in person at our office in the portables on the grounds of the Joseph. A. Edgar School in Rocky Point. Credit card payments can be made by logging into your account. If your card declines, you will be charged a $20 fee. Any payments that are not received by the 7th of the month will be automatically charged to the card/account on file. Any payment received after the 7th of each month will be subject to a $20 late fee. If your account reaches a two-month unpaid balance, your child will be suspended from the program until the full balance is paid. For the month of June, if payment is not received in our office by the 15th of that month, your child may be suspended from the program until payment in full is made along with any late payment fees that are due. If you request to place your account on a “recurring credit card basis,” we will charge your card automatically on or around the 7th of the month. 

If the 1st or the 7th of the month falls on a weekend, billing will take place on the nearest business day. Specific dates will be included in the monthly invoice email.

Please be advised that when registering through Procare, there is an option to save your card to your account. This does not enroll you in monthly recurring billing; this option saves your card for future payments made through your portal. If you wish to be on autopay, you must download and complete the processing form or call the office to request the link.
per diem rates
Per diem care is available for families who need occasional before or after school care. Per diem sessions must be purchased in advance in bundles, either 5 sessions for $150 or 10 sessions for $290. Each session may be used for either before school care or after school care. Families who plan to use per diem care regularly must pre-purchase these bundles by contacting the office. Per diem sessions must be added to your account and paid for before your child attends. Payments may be made by check, cash, or credit card.

Once purchased, per diem sessions may be used at any time during the current school year for per diem use only, but they expire at the end of the school year. Unused sessions cannot be rolled over to the following year and cannot be applied to extended care days or school break programs. Please be sure to purchase additional sessions before your balance runs out to ensure your child can attend when needed.
​
In the case of an unexpected emergency, a one-time single per diem session for $30 may be approved during the school year without purchasing a bundle. Please contact the office if this situation arises. Thereafter, per diems must be purchased in a bundle.
