Before & After-School Programs
We understand not every household schedule looks the same. Many adults begin working before school starts, & end their shift well after school has wrapped for the day. The purpose of our before & after-school programs are to ensure no child is home alone before or after school. We give hardworking adults peace of mind, knowing their child has a safe place to go before & after school. Wake Harvest is honored to partner with families by supporting children through youth development.

Why Choose Wake Harvest?
Wake Harvest is unlike any other before/after-school program. We focus on social-emotional development and the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of each child. We are also one of the few programs that accept teenagers. Most camps and after-school programs stop accepting children at age 12. We believe teenage years are when our children need the most guidance. We are up for the challenge.
At Wake Harvest your child will be encouraged to use their imagination, creativity, communication skills and more. Wake Harvest is a youth mentorship and development organization established in January 2019. Our before and after-school programs teach life skills in a fun and safe environment. Some of the topics we discuss include emotional regulation, problem solving and self-esteem building.
What Makes Us Different?
- Bully-Free Environment: Many families have transfer, their children to Wake Harvest due to their children experiencing unresolved bullying elsewhere. At Wake Harvest, we are a bully-free zone. This does not mean that bully behavior never presents itself. It means when it does we work through it with the children to help resolve the issues and correct these behaviors.
- Parents and guardians recognize positive improvements in their children through the guidance of our programs.
- Our Clubhouse is equipped with air hockey, foosball, ping pong, loads of games, a library of books, volleyball court, gaga ball pit, basketball hoop and playground.
- Aside from teaching life skills and focusing on social-emotional development, Wake Harvest also offers care on teacher workdays and some holidays.
