Bright Futures Summer Camp is shining bright this summer!

Recently, our Bright Futures Childcare Director, Olivia Hester, joined Brandon Bigg B Hickman on Coast 97.3 - WMNX Wilmington to share how Bright Futures Childcare Center is helping children learn, grow, and thrive through childcare, afterschool programming, and unforgettable summer camp experiences.

From STEM activities and robotics to arts and crafts, sensory play, outdoor adventures, pool days, field trips, and new friendships, our programs are designed to spark curiosity, build confidence, and create lasting memories for children of all ages.

Whether your child is exploring through our Preschool Summer Camp (ages 6 weeks – 5 years) or embarking on exciting adventures in our Summer Camp (ages 5+), there is something for every young learner to discover this summer.

Motherhood is more than one role and one story. It is love, sacrifice, guidance, resilience, and the people who continue showing up for the next generation every single day.

This Mother’s Day, we celebrate the moms, grandmothers, caregivers, mentors, and community members who help children feel supported, seen, and cared for.

At YWCA - Lower Cape Fear, we are proud to walk alongside families through programs that create opportunity, connection, and support at every stage of life. From Bright Futures Childcare Center and the Early Parenthood Program to H.E.R. Path, Grandparent Support Network, and the YWCA Aquatics Center, our work is centered on strengthening families and building community.

Swipe to see a special moment from our Grandparent Support Network outreach event, a reminder that raising children truly takes a village.

Happy Mother’s Day from YWCA - Lower Cape Fear ✨
