Updates to the Child Care Subsidy Program

The Alberta Government has made changes to its child care subsidies. Families with existing child care subsidies can renew their applications until March 31, 2025. Starting April 1, 2025, only subsidy applications for children in full-time kindergarten through Grade 6 enrolled in licensed programs outside regular school hours will be accepted. Children up to kindergarten age attending licensed daycare and family day home programs during regular school hours will transition to a universal monthly fee structure. Monthly parent fees will be $326.25 per month, equivalent to $15 per day, for full-time care and $230.00 per month for part-time care.

We encourage you to visit the website at Alberta.ca/Child_Care_Subsidy to learn more about the benefit and confirm you are eligible.

This change is in place effect April 1, 2025 through Child Care Subsidy Online Services.
