If you have a local childcare association or can hook up with one nearby they probably offer a tax workshop for caregivers that will either be presented by an accountant, someone from revenue canada or by a seasoned caregiver that does their own taxes. Once you have made a list of all of the things you can deduct it really isn't that bad to do it yourself. I found by the time I organized everything to send to the accountant the end of the month it was just as easy to input the numbers myself and then add them up at the end of the year. Use of home and meals is simply a formula you apply to your totals so again, all year you just save receipts and add them up.
