LOCAL DAYCARE
Looking for help before or after school? Here are a few local daycare options:
The YMCA daycare facility is on site and their phone number and email address appears below. Also listed are phone numbers for daycare providers close to Valhalla Elementary. It is always recommended that you do your own background check on these daycares. We can’t recommend anybody in particular, but the providers are all close to Valhalla, and may pick their students up on campus.
