Families in Martensville had their first opportunity to secure a spot with the upcoming BGC Saskatoon Early Learning Centre (ELC) that will be located within the Martensville Recreation Centre, when the official waiting list opened on September 15, 2025.
The centre, which is expected to open in early 2026, will provide 90 licensed childcare spaces for children aged six weeks to six years. It will operate on weekdays from 7:00am to 6:00pm and is expected to employ 22 full-time early childhood educators, nutrition specialists, and management staff, as well as part-time and casual positions.
The project is supported through the Canada-Saskatchewan Canada-Wide Early Learning and Child Care Agreement, a $1.1 billion investment over five years to expand childcare access and reduce costs for families.
The Martensville ELC is expected to ease pressure on childcare wait times in the city, while also creating new employment opportunities for educators and staff.
