Daycares in Frelighsburg: CPEs and garderies

All three need a permit from the Ministère de la Famille. A CPE (centre de la petite enfance) is run by a board of directors on which at least two-thirds of the members are parents, and parents pay the reduced contribution. Garderies generally operate for profit: subsidized garderies offer reduced-contribution places, while non-subsidized garderies set their own fees.

Through Québec's Portail d'inscription aux services de garde (formerly La Place 0-5). You sign in with the Service d'authentification gouvernementale, register your child and choose the daycares you want. When a place opens, the daycare offers it from its waiting list, which is ordered by priority categories and your desired start date. The Portail shows your child's approximate rank at each CPE and subsidized garderie. Clearway Kids has no role in placement or rank.

Non-subsidized garderies use a different admission process and don't show a rank indicator on the Portail. Contact the daycare directly; its phone number and website are on its listing when we have them.

In a CPE or subsidized garderie, parents pay the reduced contribution set by the government: $9.65 a day in 2026, indexed every January 1. Non-subsidized garderies set their own fees, and those fees can qualify for Québec's refundable tax credit for childcare expenses.

No. On the Portail d'inscription aux services de garde, only children who are already born or newly adopted can be registered.
