The daycare sector is among the markets that the Bank focuses particular attention on. In fact, a team of specialists with pertinent knowledge and expertise has been formed to offer services geared exclusively to the requirements of daycare owners.
A Solid Offering Designed Especially for the Daycare Sector
Having built an expert team with an excellent understanding of how daycares operate and are regulated, the Bank is able to offer financial advice, management vehicles and business solutions that correspond perfectly to the preoccupations of the owners of these establishments.

Whether it be a matter of short-term financing like a line of credit to facilitate daycare operations, or long-term financing for real estate transactions or leasehold improvements, anything is possible for projects that are well planned out.
"Our financing solutions are built on flexible criteria and are custom-tailored to the specific realities of the daycare sector. In effect, each daycare represents a value that we are able to assess in a comprehensive manner," explains François Dumas, Senior Manager with Laurentian Bank's Daycares Group, SME Financial Services.
