We’re Working to make Child Care Cheaper!

Kids deserve a high-quality childcare system that will provide them with the best start in life and parents deserve a break when it comes to the cost of raising a family.

We’re investing $440 Million Nova Scotia to:

• Bring the cost of child care to $10/day,

• Create 9500 new childcare spaces, so everyone who needs it can access high quality childcare,

• Ensure that the Early Childhood Educators who look after our kids are paid fairly for their work,

• Implement an inclusive early learning childcare strategy that focuses on respect for diversity and strives for equity, inclusion, and accessibility.

This program is saving families thousands of dollars every year, creating opportunities for more parents - and moms in particular - to find good jobs in our community, and giving our kids a healthy start in their early years.

I'm looking forward to the impact this investment will have in communities across Nova Scotia!
