Many of Canada’s working professionals have demanding jobs that require them to be away from home for much of the day. Such professionals typically hire nannies or other child care providers to look after their children while they are away. However, there aren’t enough people in these roles to satisfy the growing demand for these services.
The Canadian Government has therefore set up a special program called the Home Child Care Provider Pilot (HCCP) that allows foreign workers with childcare experience to come to Canada and potentially obtain permanent residence.
