Why the fee subsidy pressure?
Q:
Let’s start by asking, what are the fee subsidy trends?
The long-term underlying movement (trend) in fee subsidy has been one of increase
Within the fee subsidy trend there are seasonal events that are closely related to education and employment
There are also randomly occurring events such as government policy and program changes which have had an impact on the trend

Trend, 4-month moving average Series2
Figure 2
The smoothed trend helps to clearly
show the first stepped increase in
the number of subsidized children,
followed by a decrease, and then
the second stepped increase.
The number of subsidized toddlers (1.6 – 2.5 years) and kindergarten children (ages 4 – 6 years) has remained relatively steady over time.
However, the number of fee subsidy infants (0 – 1.5 years) has recently started to decrease.
Preschoolers (2.5 – 4 years) and school age children (6 – 12 years) are trending upward.

Q:
What is causing the increase in the number of subsidized children in Nipissing District?
Is the increase across the childcare sector?
A main factor in this increase - and the associated budget pressure – is an increase in childcare capacity resulting from the government’s Early Learning Program The increase is not occurring across the district’s childcare sector – rather, it is presently concentrated in the large service providers
