Licensed Child Care

About our Child Care Centres

Our Early Learning and Before & After School Centres offer programs and services organized around the four foundations which are important for children to grow and flourish – Belonging, Well-Being, Engagement, and Expression which are presented in “How Does Learning Happen?”, an Ontario Ministry of Education resource for those who work with young children and their families.

We are happy to welcome the long-awaited news that a federal-provincial child care agreement has been reached. Please read our full statement in regards to the announcement by clicking here.

Parents are encouraged to call the appropriate site phone number to arrange site visits, meet staff, and learn more about site services.

Hamilton Public Health has updated the screening requirements for EarlyON and Child Care Programs.
