Interested families are encouraged to contact Halton Region to find out whether or not they qualify for the child care subsidy program.

“Halton Region is committed to investing in programs that help support families and children,” said Halton Regional Chair Gary Carr. “By helping families cover some of the cost associated with child care we are helping them give their child the best possible start. Quality early childhood education can have an important and positive impact on a child’s development.”

Research shows that quality child care has a positive impact on your child’s success. Quality child care is one of the most important investments you can make for your child.
