To Register

We are currently experiencing a high volume of waitlist submissions for our daycare program with minimal spots becoming available each year. Our waitlist is closed at this time and will reopen as we have availability to take more applicants.

We will not be able to speak to your child’s placement once on the waitlist.

Additionally, families may be eligible for the Affordable Child Care Benefit. To determine if you qualify for it, visit www.gov.bc.ca/affordablechildcarebenefit.
