City of Kingston Childcare Services

The Centralized Childcare Registry & Information Service (CCRIS) provides information about childcare services available in Kingston, and on how to apply for home-based, centre-based, and/or school age care. To be eligible, parents/guardians must be employed or enrolled in an education or retraining program during the hours when their child is in care. Subsidies are available for qualifying families. To apply, visit www.kingstonchildcare.ca and register for a space in the licensed centre(s) of your choice. The City will then contact you to book an appointment for an income assessment application. Remember to bring documentation (click here for examples) to your appointment. Visit the City of Kingston’s website for more information.
