Real daycare jobs for newcomers and international students — early childhood educator, ECE assistant and supervisor roles. Free for job seekers: employers pay us, you never do.
Child care centres across Canada are short-staffed, and demand for early childhood educators keeps growing. The Solution Hub places newcomers and international students directly with hiring daycares — this is the placement work we do most, and the work we're best at.
You get an ATS-friendly resume built for child care hiring, honest guidance on which roles match your credentials, interview preparation, and introductions to centres that are actually hiring — not just job-board links.
Our placement help costs you nothing. Hiring daycares fund the service. We never charge job seekers a placement fee.
The most common starting point — many centres hire assistants without provincial registration. A great first Canadian job in child care.
Registered ECE roles for candidates with recognized credentials — we guide you through registration if you trained outside Canada.
For experienced educators — lead roles, before/after-school programs, and centres looking for senior staff.
ECE roles with designated employers in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia — some connect to the Atlantic Immigration Program.
Tell us about your education, experience and work permit. We tell you honestly which roles fit — and which don't, yet.
Day 1An ATS-friendly resume that speaks the language daycare directors look for — ratios, curriculum, safety, documentation.
Days 2–5We introduce you to daycares that are actually hiring for your role and location — not just links to job boards.
Week 1–2Mock interviews with the real questions centres ask — child guidance scenarios, safety, and how to present overseas experience.
Before each interviewWe stay with you through the offer, first-day paperwork, and settling in. Your success is how we get paid — by the employer.
OngoingIt depends on the role and the province. In Ontario, the title "Registered Early Childhood Educator" requires registration with the College of Early Childhood Educators — but centres also hire assistants and program staff without registration. Other provinces have their own certification levels and processes.
If you trained outside Canada, your credentials may qualify for equivalency assessment. During your free assessment we map your education to the right role level and, where registration makes sense, point you to the official provincial process — so you never pay for steps you don't need.
Early childhood educators and assistants fall under NOC 42202, which has appeared in Express Entry category-based draws for education occupations — use our NOC Finder and CRS Calculator to see where you stand. Immigration advice for your specific case is provided through a licensed consultant.
"My ATS resume was getting zero responses. After The Solution Hub rebuilt it, I got 4 interview calls in one week. Their knowledge of Canadian hiring is unmatched."
No. Our daycare and ECE placement is free for job seekers — hiring daycares fund the service. In Ontario, charging job seekers a fee for finding them a job is against the law, and we follow that rule everywhere we work.
Not always. Registered ECE roles in Ontario require registration with the College of Early Childhood Educators, but many centres also hire ECE assistants and program staff without registration. We tell you honestly which roles fit your current credentials and how to upgrade them.
Many international students work part-time in child care while studying, within the work-hour limits on their study permit. After graduation, a PGWP lets you work full-time. We check your permit situation during the free assessment before matching you with employers.
We place candidates across Canada, with our strongest employer network in Ontario and Atlantic Canada (New Brunswick and Nova Scotia), where daycare demand is high and some roles connect to immigration pathways like the Atlantic Immigration Program.
