The YMCA of Greenwich announced the selection of Carly Dinnie as its new Director of Childcare. Dinnie brings extensive experience as an early childcare educator and YMCA administrator. She previously served as Director of School Readiness Preschool for the Middlesex YMCA where she managed the school’s curriculum and National Association for the Education of Young Children certification.

“Carly was the unanimous choice of the search committee” said Bob DeAngelo, the YMCA’s President and CEO. “She’s a high energy, results-oriented professional who can successfully lead our dedicated staff, bring out the best in our children and positively engage with our Childcare and After School families. We’re incredibly proud to call her one of our own.”

Dinnie’s appointment comes at an exciting time for the YMCA’s Early Learning Center, located in the heart of Chickahominy. Both childcare and after school programs will launch new curriculums for the 2016-17 school year. Infant, toddler and preschool programs will utilize The Creative Curriculum, aligning with Common Core State Standards. Online assessment tools will allow teachers to measure children’s development while giving parents access to view progress online.

The YMCA of Greenwich has operated childcare programming at the facility on the corner of St. Roch and Hamilton Avenue since 1986. Over 200 hundred children are enrolled in the center’s programming.

“I’m very excited to be joining the Greenwich YMCA family,” said Dinnie. “It’s an honor to be apart of an operation with such close connections to the community. My goal is to support this dynamic and unique program by championing the YMCA’s core values of healthy minds, bodies and spirits.”
