    The portal will collect information on the age range of the child, the type of care required and whether the child is currently on a wait list.

    Government has launched the Child Care Demand Portal as a tool to assess the current demand for child care services. Families or caregivers seeking child care are asked to visit the portal and input information regarding their child care needs. The portal will collect information on the age range of the child, the type of care required and whether the child is currently on a wait list. This information will assist the department to better focus on where space creation is needed most and will guide plans for targeted space creation.
