Saskatchewan to fund rural child care initiatives expands registry efforts
Saskatchewan province will fund rural child care projects amid concerns about feasibility of using town day cares for farm families. Outlook began a registry in 1996 to connect families with caregivers, with plans for Assiniboia and Redvers. Moosomin operates a licensed day care with extended hours, facing funding uncertainty after 1998. Rural centers push for flexible hours, training, and community-driven solutions amid changing attitudes and a drive to recruit caregivers.
