Parking at SickKids

The Atrium parking garage is located underground, with the entrance on Elm Street, just west of the Elizabeth Street and Elm Street intersection. Parking is for SickKids patients, families, caregivers and staff.

Parking rate changes take effect April 1

As we continue to manage financial pressures across the organization, SickKids will be increasing its daily parking rates as of April 1.

To limit the impact of these changes on patients and families who come to SickKids often or for extended stays, the price of an H Pass, which offers discounted parking, will not increase and will stay the same at $10 per use. Learn more on how to purchase the H Pass.

Weekdays - Monday to Friday 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. $6 for every 30 minutes to a maximum of $24.   
Evenings - Monday to Friday from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. $3 for every 30 minutes to a maximum of $7.50.

H Pass

SickKids offers the H Pass, a multi-use parking pass that gives a discounted parking rate for patients and families who come to SickKids often or for extended stays.

The H Pass is available for 5, 10 or 30 uses at a cost of $10 per use.
The H Pass has in/out privileges for each 24-hour period.
It is valid for up to two years from the date of purchase.
You can purchase the H Pass from the Parking Office. Please show the Parking Office attendant your caregiver identification – such as a SickKids Caregiver ID badge/sticker, or a clinic/appointment confirmation letter.
Check your H Pass balance online or by scanning the QR code on the back of your H Pass card.
The H Pass should be treated like cash. If lost, you will not be reimbursed.

H Pass – 5 or 10 uses

Caregivers purchasing 5 or 10 uses will receive one access card that can be shared among family members and the patient’s visitors.

H Pass – 30 uses

Caregivers purchasing a 30-use card can request up to two access cards at the time of purchase.
Each card will be linked to the same account, but can be used by any of the patient’s family members and visitors.
Multiple vehicles can use the same H Pass, as long as both vehicles are not in the parking facility at the same time.

Electric vehicle charging stations

SickKids offers three EV charging stations on Level P1 of the Atrium Parking Garage.

There is no extra fee for using the charging stations although parking rates apply.

EV-only spaces
Maximum charging time: Four hours
Move your vehicle after charging so others may use the stations

Download the FLO Mobile App from Google Play or the App Store.
Connect to our free WiFi network if needed:
- Network name: SickKidsGUEST
- Password: beourguest
Enter the charger’s serial number in the app (e.g. “AAB – 20995”)
Plug in and charge for up to four hours. As a courtesy to other drivers, your vehicle must be relocated to a place within the Atrium parking garage when the four-hour charge is complete to allow others to use the space.

For 24/7 assistance with charging issues, contact FLO directly at 1-888-356-8911.

Only EVs that are actively charging may use the EV parking spaces.
The EV charging station cannot be used for loading and unloading, temporary parking or as a pick-up or drop-off area.
Spaces cannot be reserved. First come, first served.
Unauthorized vehicles parked in the EV charging station or failure to comply with parking regulations may result in ticket and/or towing of your vehicle at your expense.

The EV charging stations and their installation were supported by Natural Resources Canada and Pollution Probe.

As part of our commitment to environmental sustainability, we are pleased to offer the convenience of EV charging to support patients, families and staff to use environmentally friendly transportation.
