Yes. About 94% of BC's licensed providers participate in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative, which automatically lowers fees without a parent application. If a facility is approved for the $10-a-Day ChildCareBC program, fees are capped at $200 per month per child for any BC family, regardless of income. Lower-income families may also qualify for the Affordable Child Care Benefit on top of these reductions.
