Child Care and Early Years Programs

Child Care, EarlyON Child and Family Centres

Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board (KPRDSB) is committed to building strong collaborative partnerships with licensed child care and school age programs, EarlyON Child and Family Centres, and Authorized Recreational Programs in order to support schools, students, families, and communities. Many families benefit from child care and family support services located within our school buildings.  And, while each location may offer different programs, all are designed to provide children and their families with an opportunity to learn and grow, providing a more convenient approach to school and child care, with fewer transitions for children and families.

Types of programs available

  • Before and/or after school programs for children in kindergarten to grade 6. These programs are usually held in shared spaces like gyms and libraries.
  • Full day/ All day child care *Offered at some school locations
  • Early ON Child and Family Programs

Most programs are offered from 7:00 a.m. to morning bell, and from afternoon bell to 6:00 p.m. with daily access to outside play. (Times may vary depending on location.)

The Ministry of Education has general information about child care options in Ontario.

Canada-Wide Early Learning and Child Care – Information for Families

The Canada-Wide Early Learning and Child Care (CWELCC) system is a five-year plan to reduce the cost of child care to an average of $10 per day by 2026. Each municipality is working with the provincial government to implement this program for families with eligible children. Currently, all third-party licensed child care providers in KPR schools are a part of the CWELCC system, offering reduced fees for children 0-6 years.

Children under the age of six (or who turned six before June 30, 2023) in a licensed child care program participating in CWELCC, are eligible for fee reductions that will help with the cost of child care. If your child is in kindergarten and attending the before and/or after school program, and turns six during the school year, they are eligible for a fee reduction until June 30 or the end of the month that they turn six. If your child is enrolled in a participating School-Age CWELCC program and turns six, they are eligible until the end of the month they turn six.

Child Care Fee Subsidy Program and CWELCC

The Child Care Fee Subsidy Program in each municipality continues to be available for eligible families with children under age 13. A families’ assessed fee may be reduced with CWELCC, depending on the number of eligible children. For more child care fee subsidy information, please click on the link for your municipality.
