Early Childhood Program @ Government of the Northwest Territories

The Early Childhood Program supports early learning and child care programs for children 0-11 years of age under the Child Day Care Act. Early learning and child care programs are delivered in a variety of settings in the NWT including, child day care centres and family day homes. These can be in the form of full and part time early childhood education programs, preschools, nursery schools and after school-out-of-school programs. These programs provide play-based exploratory environments that support children’s development and where required, enable parents to access employment or training opportunities.
