Examples of reimbursable expenses:
- If your child comes with you to Waterloo, allowable expenses include the child’s transportation costs, babysitting or childcare fees incurred here, transportation to and from child care centres, and fees for day camp (which may be available during summer).
- If you bring a caregiver (who can be a family member), their transportation and lodging is reimbursable.
- If your child stays home while you travel to Perimeter, additional child care costs incurred because of your trip are claimable.
If you’re unsure whether an expense can be covered, just send an email to our Conference Program Lead, Stephanie Mohl ([email protected]), outlining your situation and ask for clarification about what this program would cover for your specific case.
Interested conference participants must apply here for approval before the meeting.
