1. Can grandparents, or other relatives raising children, become registered home providers for their own grandchildren or other children?

Yes, grandparents, can apply to become a registered home to provide care subsidized by ECECD for up to four (4) non-residential children, in addition to any children living in the residence, including their own grandchildren, other relative children, or non-related children. Grandparents with legal custody or guardianship of their grandchildren are not eligible to receive subsidy payments directly from ECECD for those children.
