抠条文的话,这里 T778 说明中

When the child care services are provided by an individual, the individual
cannot be:
- the child's father or mother;
- another person (as described under "Who can claim child care expenses?");
- a person for whom you or another person claimed an amount on line 305, 306, 315, or 367 of Schedule 1; or
- a person under 18 years of age who is related to you.
A person is related to you if he or she is connected to you by a blood relationship, marriage or common-law partnership, or adoption. For example, your brother, sister, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and your or your spouse’s or common-law partner’s child are related to you. However, your niece, nephew, aunt, and uncle are not.
如果你报了305或315,就不能报 daycare expense了,表格里说得清楚。如果不报305/315,条文里没说不能报托儿费,能不能看税局审计官员的理解和你证据是否充分了。比如你说老人帮你带孩子是事实,你给老人开工资是事实么?有证据我觉得就没问题,但是我不是税局的,最后他们说了算。
