KidEase
Quebec child care guide
KidEase lists licensed daycare in Canada.
This guide points to official government pages. KidEase does not set fees or award grants.
Create your KidEase listing after you have a licence, or claim the one already in the directory.
Fees after the Canada-wide agreements
Reduced parent fees are set by each province for participating licensed programs. Confirm the current amount on the official pages. KidEase does not invent a fee.
Subsidized spaces (reduced-contribution) are awarded through competitive project calls: not a start-up cheque from KidEase. Non-subsidized garderies may still operate with a permit; parents may use the Revenu Québec childcare tax credit. Confirm the current call on Québec.ca.
Subsidy steps
Apply on the official subsidy or funding page. KidEase does not process the application.
Waitlist rules
Waitlist rules are set by the province. KidEase does not charge a waitlist fee. Read the licensing page before you ask a family to join a list.
How to start a licensed daycare
Québec is its own system (not CWELCC fee rules). To open a CPE or a subsidized garderie, apply through a project call for subsidized spaces. A non-subsidized garderie applies directly to the ministry for a permit (application fee applies). Do not start build-out before written ministry authorization.
