A brief description of the child care program, policy, or practice:
There are currently two daycares on the University of Saskatchewan campus.
Campus Daycare provides daycare for children of campus students, staff and faculty. It has spaces for 45 children. The daycare incorporates some teaching into the program, offering music Mondays (provided through the College of Education), swimming lessons, campus outings, and skating during the winter at the Rutherford Arena. The operation is managed by a parent–run board although its space in the Education Building is provided by the university for a nominal rent that includes janitorial services.
The USSU (Students' Union) Childcare Centre operates independently as an affiliated organization with a separate Board of Directors. It is government subsidized and licensed for 66 children aged six months to six years and exists primarily to serve the needs of undergraduate students. The daycare is within walking distance to the University and conveniently located on a bus route.
The University of Saskatchewan is currently investigating opportunities to expand childcare spaces on campus.
