What this means for parents
Starting in early 2022, all parents can expect to see a reduction in fees as follows:
Infant fees will reduce by $635 per month
Toddler fees will reduce by $510 per month
Pre-school fees will reduce by $450 per month
Maximum subsidy rates
In addition to the reduction in fees through the affordability grant, the subsidy will continue to be available to families who qualify as per adjusted rates and income thresholds. The maximum subsidy that a family can qualify for will be $266 (for family income under $120,000). So, this subsidy will be on top of the reduction in fees that will be available to all families due to the new affordability grant.
For Example, a family earning under $120,000 per year with one toddler attending Little Pearls would be eligible for a full subsidy of $266/month and our program will receive $510/month in an operating grant. Since our fee for toddler age is $1100 per month, the remaining parent portion is $324 (i.e., approx. $16/day).
