The City of Kingston pays up to 100% of the costs of licensed Daycare depending on the individual family's circumstances and income. Please contact the subsidy office at the City of Kingston website
It is the parent's/guardian's responsibility to ensure that their subsidy is approved and renewed when required and that they keep track of their Holiday and Sick Day use. Full fees will be charged for days used beyond the Subsidy Office maximum. Failure to maintain subsidy approval will result in a full fee billing. Eligibility for subsidy is determined by Family and Children's Services.
If you think you may qualify for a subsidy please indicate this when registering your child on the waiting list. When the Centre confirms that a space is available you will be asked to contact the subsidy office to make an appointment. You will not be able to start until you have been seen by the subsidy office as they will not back date your eligibility.
