The Ontario government is investing $42.6 million to create more than 1500 additional licensed child care spaces across the province, including 18 infant rooms (180 new spaces), 28 toddler rooms (420 new spaces), 36 preschool rooms (864 new spaces), and seven family age group rooms (105 new spaces).

As part of Ontario’s plan to support access to safe, affordable and high-quality child care, Ontario has committed up to $1 billion to create up to 30,000 new licensed child care spaces over five years. To date, over 23,000 new spaces have been approved, which will support families and ensure a strong and accessible child care system.
