At a glance
Childcare at a gym is unusual in Belgium, and the confirmed ones so far sit mostly around Mons, Saint-Ghislain, Péronnes-lez-Antoing and Mouscron in French-speaking Hainaut. They are independent clubs and sports centres, all with group classes and class booking, so a parent can join a class while the children are looked after.
Find a club that looks after children while you train, and compare ages and hours before you plan a class around it.
Childcare is one of the rarest gym extras in Belgium, and the clubs that confirm it are independent gyms and sports centres in Hainaut rather than chain branches. It is usually organised around group classes, so a parent can train while the children are supervised nearby.
Before you plan around it, ask which ages are accepted, whether a place must be booked with the class, and whether it costs extra on top of a membership or class pass.

What differs from one gym to the next, and what to check before you sign up.
What counts as childcare varies: some clubs have a staffed play area with set hours, others a simple supervised corner. Formal childcare in Belgium is regulated by the regions, through Kind en Gezin in Flanders and ONE in Wallonia, while a gym play area is usually informal and requires you to stay in the building. Ask about hours, the age range and whether you book a place in advance.
