Accessible and affordable child minding options are a key part of Congress.

Following on the successful child minding options available at Congress 2014, we are committed to providing convenient childcare options for registered attendees of Congress 2015.

Two child minding services will be available. Both services are bilingual and will operate from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm on each day of Congress (May 30 to June 5). If you will require child minding services during Congress, be sure to pre-register your children before May 14.

Child minding (6 months to 5 years)

In partnership with the Bernadette Child Care Centre, the University of Ottawa is pleased to offer child minding services for Congress attendees. The goals of the Bernadette Child Care Centre are to foster positive human qualities while providing the care and education appropriate to the children’s development. The program will offer age appropriate morning and afternoon activities and offer care in accordance with the Ontario Ministry of Education guidelines. In addition, two snacks and a warm lunch will be provided.
