What is onelist waterloo region?

In case you are not familiar with OneList Waterloo Region, it is a centralized website that allows parents to find and apply for licensed early child care programs within the Region of Waterloo. Simply ‘Log In’ or ‘Sign Up’ if you do not already have account and search for Happy Explorers Learning Academy to apply.

Please note that you only need to apply to one program (at your explorer’s current age) For instance, if you apply to the infant program and do not get a spot, your application will automatically age promote to the next age group – the toddler program. Please do not apply for the infant, toddler and preschool programs at the same time as this affects the registration process.
