To support members of our essential workforce, Emergency Child Care for school-aged children will be available at no cost to eligible families of essential workers with no other child care alternatives.
The District of Thunder Bay Social Services Administration Board (TBDSSAB) will work closely with the provincial government and community partners to determine locations. Child care hours and service options will vary by centre. Emergency Child Care may be available as early as January 10th.
Applications are now being accepted for Emergency Child Care. Please apply online at www.thunderbaychildcare.ca and sign in with an existing account or register for a new account. As the Emergency Child Care service requires a separate application, applying with an existing waitlist account will not modify any other waitlist choices.
TBDSSAB will contact eligible families to confirm eligibility, and to notify families when a space becomes available.
If you have any questions, please direct them to Louise Piercey, Manager, Child Care & Early Years Programs at louise.piercey@tbdssab.ca.
