    Historique

    The Division was created as the Early Learning Division. It had two units, the early learning implementation branch and the early learning policy and program branch. The Division assumed some functions of the Ministry of Children and Youth Services.

    In 2012, its original two branches were renamed to the Early learning and child care implementation branch and the Early learning and child care policy and program branch, and a new branch was added, the child care quality assurance and licensing branch.

    In 2014 the Division was renamed the Early Years Division. Consequently, two branches were renamed to be the Early Years implementation branch and the Early Years policy and program branch. Another unit was added, the Finance and business operations unit, which was renamed in 2015 to the Business planning, outcomes and assessments branch.

    In 2018, the Division was renamed the Early Years and Child Care Division. Its functions were unchanged. It now contained four branches, the Finance accountability and data analysis branch, the Child care quality assurance and licensing branch, the Programs & service integration branch, and the Early years and child care policy branch

    In 2021 the Early years and child care policy branch was dissolved and its functions were transferred to the Strategic Policy & Initiatives Branch in Strategic Policy & Initiatives Division. The remainder of the Division's structure was unchanged.
