Registration
Choosing child care is a big decision for your family.
Selecting the right child care for your family involves location, price, and programs. We get that. All of our locations are staffed with Registered Early Childhood Educators committed to fostering safe, welcoming, and nurturing environments where your child feels at home. As Canada’s leading not-for-profit child care provider, we provide exceptional care that’s accessible for all.
To learn about fees in your region, please contact the supervisor of the centre you’re interested in.

Canada Wide Early Learning and Child Care Agreement
Recently, the federal and provincial governments entered into the Canada Wide Early Learning and Child Care Agreement to make child care more affordable for families with children under six years of age. A plan for reduced fees is a priority for the Ministry of Education and those Child Care Operators who have chosen to participate.
The YMCA of Three Rivers Child Care is participating in the Canada Wide Early Learning Child Care system. As a result, parents using care with the YMCA of Three Rivers will see a gradual reduction of fees over the next few years.
