Located on Providence’s East Side, the East Side/Mt. Hope YMCA is a welcoming neighborhood hub for families and healthy living. A cornerstone of our work is the Mt. Hope Childcare Center, providing licensed early education for infants through pre-K in a warm, play-based setting. Alongside childcare, members enjoy a golf simulator, pickleball, energizing group exercise classes, and everyday fitness amenities that make it easy to stay active. From the earliest years to lifelong wellness, the East Side Y brings people together to learn, move, and belong.
