Child Care in the GTA (905): every licensed centre, by municipality
1,807 licensed child care centres across 24 municipalities of Durham, York, Peel and Halton regions, from Ontario's provincial licensing registry: care options, languages of service and licence history.
These are directory-grade listings. Ontario's provincial file does not publish subsidy or CWELCC enrolment, quality scores, capacity, or vacancies for these centres, so we don't show them: absence is stated, never invented. Toronto centres carry the city's scored quality assessments: browse Toronto by ward · Metro Vancouver by municipality.
