1. A "centre de la petite enfance (CPE)" is a non-profit or cooperative daycare centre where at least two thirds of the board of directors is made up of parents who use the service. CPEs offer lower cost spaces at their facility (7 $ a day). CPEs provide care for children aged 0 to 5 while their parents are away and offer educational activities.
Through the "Centre de la petite enfance" and Other Child Care Services Act (1997), the Quebec government established a network of CPEs from the existing non-profit daycare centres and home daycares.
