/Please complete this survey so we can build solutions that respond to community need.
YWCA St. John’s is invested in ensuring that families have access to quality childcare.
We have worked collaboratively with community partners to explore home-based daycare as a means to alleviate the childcare crisis while also supporting newcomer women as entrepreneurs. YWCA’s are also the second largest childcare provider in Canada and we are a part of a national movement advocating for affordable childcare.
We know access to childcare is limited despite the $10/day agreement. This impacts social and economic equity for women, gender-diverse folks, and families. We see this everyday in our programs. We also know the current childcare crisis is impacting access to decent work for ECE’s. This is all a part of gender equity.
