Specialized Care
Some children require extra support to take part in day-to-day activities. Supported Child Care is a way of making sure children who require extra support are able to participate in whatever child care setting their parents think is best for them.
Depending on the community, Supported Child Care may be provided in specialized Supported Child Care facilities or in regular licensed child care settings.
