Toronto Film Festival offers childcare, private feeding stations
The Toronto Film Festival has made it less of a battle for industry parents to have their toddlers tag along as they head up the red carpet into film premieres or do deals.
"We've worked with actors, actresses, producers and we know their industry. We're open 24/7. We understand their long hours," DeVille told. Daycare during TIFF will be available for a sponsor-supplemented price of $30 per day from September 5 to 12, and between the hours of 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. Toronto film producer Lauren Grant and her peers at the Parenting at Film Festivals Group advised TIFF after their own breakthrough experience with Cannes'initiative earlier this year where onsite childcare and a space for nursing and changing babies was offered.
TIFF director of industry Geoff McNaughton added the festival daycare initiative is about dropping barriers to industry mothers with young families as they advance their careers in the Time's Up era -- a goal Toronto supports after signing the 50/50 by 2020 gender equality pledge.
