Introduction

The child care industry primarily consists of businesses that provide daycare services for infants and children. Your daycare can be a home-based operation, or it can be a commercial centre that serves a particular area or community. You can offer several different types of services; the choice of size, location and specific services will depend on you.

Some examples of daycare services include:

• Babysitting
• Child care for older children (before and after school care)
• Unlicensed or licensed home-based daycare
• Licensed centre-based daycare
• Licensed child care agency
• Nanny services (work in home of employer as a live-in or live-out nanny)
• Early childhood education services

Caring for someone else’s children involves a lot of responsibility and a serious commitment. When the children are in your custody you are responsible, by law, for their safety and well-being.

Getting started

When you start a business there are several things to consider before you can sell your product or service. Most businesses in Ontario need to complete a minimum of three basic steps:

• Find out what licences and regulations apply to your type of business
• Choose a business structure and register or incorporate your business
• Determine if you will need to collect and remit HST

Our Starting a Business guide will give you more information on these steps and other basic requirements for starting a business in Ontario.

Starting a Business

Regulations

Your business may need licences and permits from the federal, provincial and municipal levels of government.

In addition to the information you will find in this guide, you can use BizPaL to find licences and regulations that may affect your business.

Permits and licences search

Some common licences, permits and regulations that may apply to starting your daycare include:

General child care licensing standards

Child care centres and some home-based daycares in Ontario are licensed by the Ministry of Education. You may plan to offer unlicensed home-based child care, however you will need a licence if you:

• Care for more than 3 children under the age of 2 (including your own children)
• Care for more than 5 children over the age of 2 (including your own children under the age of 6)

A licence is also needed for private home daycare agencies that contract individual caregivers who provide child care out of their own homes.  

As a licensed and regulated home-based daycare provider, you need to meet provincial health, safety and caregiver training standards including:

• Caregivers must be over the age of 18
• Caregivers for special needs children must have valid first-aid certification

A home visitor will meet with licensed home-based daycare providers on a regular basis to conduct general inspections and provide support.

Additional licensing may be required if you want to care for children with a physical, visual or auditory disability, or if the child has a developmental, communication, behavioural or a chronic medical problem.

If you are planning to provide daycare or childcare services, you can confirm whether you need to be licensed by contacting the Ministry detailing your planned services.

Contact the Ministry of Education:

• The Ministry of Education only responds to written inquiries about whether a child care licence is required. You can sent a detailed email to: [email protected].

Day camps or summer camps

Day camps, or summer camps, are geared for school age children and offer activities in a community setting where the children return home in the evenings. Day camps are usually run by the week or by the month, in summers or during school breaks.

Under the Child Care and Early Years Act, 2014, a day camp does not require a child care licence if the program or service:

• operates for up to 13 weeks in a calendar year
• does not operate on school days
• does not operate in a person’s home
• only cares for children who are 4 years or older – or, if the program is offered on or after September 1, for children who will turn four by the end of the calendar year.

Note: Day camps in Ontario serving children younger than 4 years of age do require a child care licence.

Consult the Ministry of Education’s web page and fact sheet for more on day camps in Ontario:
