Enrollment Process and Registration

How do I enroll?

The Early Childhood Education Centre (ECEC) maintains a wait list of families wishing to attend our program. We recommend you place your child on our wait list early.

For online application, please visit OneList Waterloo Region.

Create a parent profile and a child profile, keeping in mind that the ECEC is listed under ‘centre-based’ programs. Put your child on the wait list for ECEC-University of Waterloo.  We will then contact you directly when a spot becomes available.

For more information, see the parent handbook (PDF) .

If you have any questions about the ECEC One List wait list please contact the ECEC at 519-888-4567 ext. 33167 or ecec@uwaterloo.ca 

Can I see the program?

When we call to offer a spot for your child, we will invite you on a parent tour of the school. On this tour, we will outline our centre's philosophy, review what a daily session looks like, answer your questions and view the centre. After your tour, you will have a day to decide and to complete your registration.
