City of Ottawa Child Care Registry and Waitlist

At Educara Montessori, we are proud to participate in the  Canada-Wide Early Learning and Child Care (CWELCC) program, offering  exceptional care and educational opportunities for your child. To  streamline the enrolment process, it is mandatory for parents to use  the City of Ottawa Child Care Registry and Waitlist. 

Here's how you can  get started:

What is the Ottawa Child Care Registry and Waitlist?

The Ottawa Child Care Registry and Waitlist is an online application designed for parents seeking licensed child care services. This comprehensive platform enables parents to:

• Choose from a variety of care options, including home-based care, centre-based care, school care, and nursery/pre-school care.

• Apply for full fee (Registry) or fee subsidy (Waitlist) by completing a single application, simplifying the process for your convenience.

• Access a list of providers that have opted-in to the Canada-Wide Early Learning and Child Care (CWELCC) System.

For Technical Support: If you require technical support with your application, you can email Support@OneHSN.com or call 1-888-722-1540.

Important Information: Please note that all parents on the Registry and Waitlist must log into their account every 60 days to update their information. This ensures that child care service providers have the most up-to-date contact details to reach parents promptly when a child care space becomes available. Failing to log in after 60 days will result in reminder emails at 90 days and a final notice at 120 days. Parents will have 72 hours to log into their account at this point. Failure to do so will lead to a final notification that their application(s) for child care will no longer be active in the Child Care Registry and Waitlist.

To start your online application for licensed child care, please visit OneHSN - Ottawa Child Care Registry.
