In the US(WA state) we have family paid leave that both employees and employers pay in for up to 12 weeks of leave.and if you combine that with your medical leave you could get up to 18 weeks. That is max of 1400/week if you are a high earner.

My daughter had 5 weeks maternity leave and so I had to take care of my granddaughter from that age on up. My daughter worked five minutes away but she was often driving her clients in other cities and in a different state but whenever she could, she would stop in to hold and feed her daughter. But as time went on, her clients (she's a Social Worker) and job required more responsibilities so she would drop her off and pick her up sometimes late in the evening if her ex husband wasn't picking her up. At 2, they put her in an private Two Year old preschool. I watched her on weekends, holidays and the summer. At 3, she was put in a different private Three Year old preschool. And the same, I watch her weekends, holidays and the summer. Now at 4, it's summer so I watch her during the week and some weekends but my daughter drops her off at 3:30 am and she's with me until around 6 pm. I don't watch her every day during the week or weekends but that will change in the fall when she goes back to her private school for Four Year olds preschool. My daughter is now a licensed Substance Abuse Counselor and still works at the other job as a Social Worker. So I'm the support for both parents to be able to work at their jobs. It'll be like that for many years to come.

This is awesome, thank you so much! I've watched so many videos and still didn't understand all of the elements, until I watched yours. This was very helpful. One thing I wasn't clear on though, was if a father and mother can take leave on the same dates. Like say, if we took short parental leave, and I (the father) took my leave from July 1st to July 31st. Is my partner allowed to be on leave at the same time, and we both collect benefits from July 1st to July 31st?

Would you happen to know what Supporting Documents are required to prove the child's birth? Does Service Canada require you to submit a birth certificate? Or a passport? OR both? If my husband was on parental leave and we chose to birth in another country, would Service Canada accept a Mexican birth certificate and the new Baby's Canadian Passport? Or do you have to give birth in Canada in order to collect your parental Leave/EI benefits? Thanks so much if you happen to know the answer!

Wow you can’t get childcare for babies under 12 months?? That’s so strange, in Australia babies over 6 weeks can go to daycare
@elsaltpond5124
Жыл бұрын
This depends on which Canadian province you live in. In Quebec you can send your baby to a licenced daycare from 3 months old. These daycares are called pouponneries or pouponnières. Most daycares accept babies from 18 months old but there are also some that accept babies from 6 months or 12 months old. It's just that there is high demand so you have to apply for a spot when you're still pregnant or after you've been approved to adopt a specific child but before the child is legally placed in your care. A lot of families also decide to hire a "mother's helper" or ask family members or close friends for childcare help. Some mother's also start their own home daycare so that they can be home with their babies but also look after I think up to 6 other kids who are older. I don't know about other provinces though.

No marital status doesn’t matter. I’ve even heard of single mothers who were able to split their leave with a friend. Who and how it gets split is up to the parent/guardian. In BC you can have up to 4 ppl on a birth certificate but it’s not a requirement that you be on the birth certificate. Ie. Grandparents could take some of that leave if that’s what the family decides. Non-parental figures having some of that leave is more complicated but I can think of a couple of examples where this has happened.

And I'm sure this exists in many other countries too.
