St. Hilary’s Day Care Centre is committed to providing fair, equitable, and transparent access to child care services for all families. The Centre does not charge or collect any fee or deposit to place a child on the waiting list.

Registration Process

Parents/guardians may add their child to the waiting list by completing the online registration form, or visiting the Centre in person.

The following information is required:

  • Parent/guardian name
  • Contact phone number and email address
  • Child’s name and date of birth
  • Desired start date

Waitlist Maintenance

  • Families will remain on the waiting list until the requested start date has passed.
  • If a space has not been offered by the requested date, the family will be removed from the list unless they contact the Centre to extend their requested start date.
  • Parents/guardians are encouraged to contact the Centre at any time to inquire about their status on the waiting list.
  • All waitlist information is kept confidential in accordance with privacy requirements.

Placement Priority

When spaces become available, placements are offered based on the following priority order:

  1. Children of returning staff members
  2. Currently enrolled children transitioning to the next age group
  3. Siblings of children currently enrolled
  4. Returning families
  5. Children from the general waiting list

St. Hilary’s Day Care will not tolerate abuse, harassment, or aggressive behaviour when discussing availabilities within the centre.  This will result in the family being removed from the list.
