How to get a spot in East End Toronto

In Toronto, you apply to each centre and ask to join its waitlist. Sign up early, especially for an infant. To lower your costs, the City of Toronto runs the child care fee subsidy program.

Most licensed programs in Ontario take part in CWELCC, the Canada wide early learning and child care program. In 2026, the base fee for a child under 6 in a participating program is capped at $22 a day, and the provincial average is about $19. Programs outside CWELCC set their own fees, so ask each centre.
