I am an employee

I previously worked at Kindergate. The issues with four-year-olds in the school-aged room was not resolved. There were THREE four-year-olds in that class. The school aged room was also over ratio. On one occasion, one of the toddlers managed to unlatch the gate and get out. A teacher not in the toddler room only noticed this when someone walking along the street saw the child outside of the gate. These issues were never resolved when reported to admins.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
