In a decision announced late Monday afternoon, all Early Learning Centre Programs were suspended as of 5:30 p.m. today (Monday). Executive director Michelle Good says they plan to re-open April 6.
Glover says they are following the direction of Southwestern Public Health regarding precautions surrounding COVID-19 in closing the five centres in St. Thomas and Aylmer.
She adds it is at the discretion of providers to continue to offer home-based child care. You are asked to check with your home-care provider to determine whether this service will continue.
Administrative offices will remain open, says Glover. For detailed info on the risks of COVID-19 visit swpublichealth.ca.
