Canadian Child Care Federation

The Canadian Child Care Federation (CCCF) is a national community for people committed to high-quality early learning and child care in Canada. It brings together early childhood educators, families, policy makers and others who support children’s development and the early learning and child care workforce. The CCCF advocates for child care that is accessible, affordable and inclusive, and regards quality early learning and child care as a right and a shared responsibility.

The federation offers trusted, evidence-based resources and professional learning to help educators strengthen their knowledge, skills and practice. Its materials include articles, research, book reviews, an Interaction magazine archive, online courses and webinars. Families can explore child development topics, activities and guidance on child care, parenting and subsidies. The CCCF also shares information about early childhood education pathways, courses, certification, salaries and professional requirements across Canada.

Members can connect with a vibrant ECE community, access membership benefits and take part in discussion and advocacy.
