The website will include information on routine inspections, complaint investigations, and re-inspections. Modelled on the DineSafe , BodySafe and SwimSafe websites, the child care centres infection prevention and control inspection results website will have similar functionality as other inspection portals. This includes a searchable database listing the child care centres, the date of the most recent child care centres infection prevention and control inspection, the nature of observed deficiencies, and outcome of the inspection (e.g. satisfactory, re-inspection required or closure). Inspection results of child care centres will also be presented on a map to enable searching by location. This initiative promotes transparency, strengthens public awareness, and ensures alignment with Ontario Ministry of Health standards. Leading up to January 1, 2026, Toronto Public Health will work with child care centres operators and administrators to provide training and guidance to ensure that they are prepared for the implementation of this disclosure. Toronto Public Health will also promote the new website to parents and guardians to make them aware of this new source of information.
