The County of Renfrew Child Care and Early Years Division offers child care supports and services to parents and young children throughout the county.
Reopening of licensed child care centres
The County of Renfrew Child Care and Early Years division is working on supporting preparations for full re-opening licensed child care in our community. By September 1, 2020 licensed child care centres will be able to expand their operating capacity up to their full capacity pre-closure.
Child care operators are working with the local health unit and other professionals to open; this includes having enhanced health and safety measures in place.
Please note that every effort is being made to uphold the welcoming and caring environment that child care provides for children and families combined with the new health and safety measures. This will take time. As a result not every child care operator will be ready to fully open at the same time.
If you are in receipt of fee subsidy, we will be contacting you once we understand space availability.
Please note: New fee subsidy applications are now being accepted online effective Friday August 14, 2020.
