Some child care centres will take children at nine months. Some won't take them until they're potty-trained.
Of course, we need a national child care program that makes child care accessible and affordable to everybody. Back in the 19th century we asked whether the government should be paying for education for all children, and we answered the question long-term. In particular, Quebec was one of the last provinces to adopt it. We said we want all our children to be educated.
We should be at that point now with child care. All of our children need the care but they also need the educational experience. One of the most expensive things is for infants, because they need a high staff-to-child ratio. But we're a rich country; we can afford it.
