Questions

Do I get a refund if my child is absent due to illness or vacation?

Yes. We provide you with an official Tax Receipt on or before February 28 of each year.

If your child is currently attending the daycare, he/she will automatically flip into the program. If your child attends the school in which the daycare is situated, then you must register for the program. Only children attending the school qualify for the program.
