  • The Affordable Child Care Benefit through the provincial government is available for low income families to meet the costs of child care.  A parent or guardian who ualifies for the benefit pays the difference between the benefit amount and our fee. It is the parent’s responsibility to apply for the Affordable Child Care Benefit. Parents are also responsible for keeping their benefit current and for the full fee if their benefit expires.  Benefits received 3 months after attendance date (for example, received in December for September) will be subject to a $100.00 processing fee, per child. Benefits approved for the previous year, after the year has ended (December 31st) will not be processed (for example, a benefit approved for September 2022 in February 2023 would not be processed).
