To find the y-intercept of the parabola given by the equation \( y = (x + 2)^2 + 5 \), we need to determine the value of \( y \) when \( x = 0 \).

Substituting \( x = 0 \) into the equation:

\[
y = (0 + 2)^2 + 5
\]

Calculating this gives:

\[
y = (2)^2 + 5 = 4 + 5 = 9
\]

Therefore, the y-intercept of the parabola is at the point \( (0, 9) \).

The correct response is:
