Summary

This report summarizes the feedback received from Toronto parents during the Let's Talk Child Care campaign.

 

The City of Toronto launched the Let's Talk Child Care campaign on November 4, 2013.  The objective was to obtain parent feedback about child care in Toronto, which will be used to inform the development of the new Child Care Funding Model and the Children's Services 2015-2019 Service Plan. The Let's Talk Child Care campaign had two components: four in-person consultations with parents (the Toronto Parent Summits); and an online survey which was available from November 4 – December 16, 2013.  Over 1600 parents of children ages 0-12 provided feedback to the City during this campaign.
