Manitoba Child Care Centre Operating Licence Application

Operating a licensed child care centre in Manitoba requires meeting strict provincial standards for facility safety, staff qualifications, and program quality. This Manitoba Child Care Centre Operating Licence Application template streamlines the entire licensing process, making it simple for child care operators to compile and submit all required documentation to Manitoba Early Learning and Child Care (ELCC).

Whether you're opening a new centre, renewing an existing licence, or expanding your capacity, this template helps you gather essential information about your facility layout, safety measures, staff credentials, programming approach, and operational policies—all in one organized submission.

Built for Manitoba child care providers

This form is designed specifically for child care centre directors, operators, and administrators navigating Manitoba's regulatory requirements. It covers facility inspections, staff-to-child ratios, health and safety protocols, emergency procedures, and staff qualification verification, ensuring you meet all provincial standards before your licensing inspection.
