Canada Wide Early Learning & Child Care Agreement
Canada Wide Early Learning & Child Care Agreement
Monday, March 28th 2022
An exciting time for Families in Ontario!
The Canada Wide Early Learning & Child Care (CWELCC) agreement was signed. After 50 years of advocacy, a national system is one step closer. Ontario's deal will lower child care fees and provide more accessible, high-quality child care, including delivering an average of $10-a-day child care by September 2025.
Agencies are required to apply and be approved. The deadline to apply is
November 1, 2022.
Applies only to children ages 0-5 in licensed child care including Licensed Home Child Care.
The "fee floor" is $12 a day, meaning fees will not be any lower unless you are in receipt of fee subsidy. Regular fees remain payable until further notice.
What about the Educators?
OCCC believes that quality child care begins with staff who are well-educated, valued, respected, supported and compensated professionally. Staff at OCCC are provided with a competitive and comprehensive compensation package.
