Child Care Subsidy Information

Families can obtain the Child Care Subsidy Application and Guide and receive assistance with filling out the application at the Sooke/Westshore Child Care Resource and Referral. We can photocopy and fax applications and documents.

If your License-not-Required provider is registered with your local CCRR, parents may be eligible for a higher subsidy rate. Please check with your provider.
