Subsidy
The YMCA accepts the Government of Alberta Child Care Subsidy to offset the cost of child care for eligible families. To learn more about the Government of Alberta's subsidy program and apply, please visit alberta.ca/child-care-subsidy.
Please note, subsidy is not included in the child care rates above as it varies by family. Subsidy will be applied to monthly fees, where applicable.
