City of Ottawa Before and After School Programs

One of the most important things to me, is if my children are not with me, I need to feel confident that they are having fun, and safe.The other issue what to do with them when there is no school. Unlikely that you can take all the time off.  There are lots of great options, but one I came across was the City of Ottawa, they have great options for before and after school care, as well as March Break, PD Days etc. Check it out here
