The 10 most in-demand jobs in Canada

No. 9: Early Education Worker

Parents, especially mothers, have had to leave the workforce in droves because they couldn’t afford or access child care during the pandemic.

As a result, the federal government is investing $30 billion in early childhood education over the next five years to provide parents with affordable, accessible, quality daycare. That is sure to create a boom in jobs for early childhood educators that will continue to grow as the population grows.

“It’s the only way they (the government) can help mothers and fathers go back to the job market and pay taxes,” says Pan.

The average pay per year for an ECE (Early Childhood Educator) is $49,517.
