A Note from EarlyON | Waterloo Region
As we enter September, we continue to enjoy connecting with you virtually through online programming and phone check-ins, and, like many of you, we’re looking forward to being able to connect again in person.
As we work hard to understand the reopening guidelines that will be expected of us, we are also focusing on the areas of reopening that are the most important to you.
We invite you to take 5 minutes to share your thoughts to help to guide us in our planning.
The Reopening Guidelines for EarlyON Child and Family Centres in Ontario are available from the Ministry of Education. We are working alongside of the Region of Waterloo, Region of Waterloo Public Health and Emergency Services and our community partners, including our local school boards as we determine when and how we can safely reopen. We are working tirelessly to ensure that the health and well-being of your child(ren), your family and our communities remain central to our re-open plan.
Our EarlyON | Waterloo Region system will be reopening in phases. When dates and locations for reopening are known, they will shared on this page, as well as through our our Email Newsletter or social media pages on Facebook and Twitter.
Pre-Registration Required
The Ministry of Education has shared in their Guidance Document for the reopening of EarlyON Child and Family Centres that pre-registration for attendance at any EarlyON Child and Family Centre program or location is required as of September 1, 2020.
In Waterloo Region, KEyON is the attendance database that we have been using since 2019. This system will also be used to complete all pre-registration for EarlyON Child and Family Centre programming both online and in person moving forward.
If you already have a KEyON account, please ensure that your account information is updated, and you have added your current phone number for contact tracing.
If you do not have a KEyON account, you will be required to create an account before you will be able to register for any online or in person EarlyON Child and Family Centre programming in Waterloo Region.
