Child Care

Providing accessible child care remains one of the great challenges facing the modern Canadian city, with demand often far exceeding availability; neither Toronto, nor the Oakwood-Vaughan region within it, is exempt from this. Even though it is no longer an operating secondary school, Vaughan Road Academy continues to host child care services on-site. This site, and others like it within the boundaries of the former City of York, is operated by the Learning Enrichment Foundation.

This section contains files relating to the child care services offered at Vaughan Road Academy, as well as items which describe more generally child care policy within the City of Toronto.
