Frequently asked questions

What types of inclusive childcare facilities are available in Burnaby?

Burnaby has 7 licensed inclusive daycares in total: 6 are licensed group childcare centres and 1 is a licensed family childcare home. Between them they cover infants, preschool-aged children, kindergarten, and after-school care.

Do any inclusive daycares in Burnaby offer programs in languages other than English?

Yes. Of the 7 facilities on this page, 2 offer programming in Mandarin and 1 offers programming in French.

Can I get help with childcare costs at a licensed inclusive daycare in Burnaby?

Yes. About 94% of BC's licensed providers participate in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative, which automatically lowers fees at participating sites without a parent application. Families earning under roughly $111,000 per year may also qualify for the Affordable Child Care Benefit, which can stack on top of other reductions.

When should I start looking for an inclusive daycare spot in Burnaby?

BC advisors recommend starting your search as early as the first trimester of pregnancy, because demand for licensed childcare significantly outpaces supply. Since BC banned waitlist fees in April 2024, there is no longer a cost barrier to applying to multiple facilities at once, so casting a wide net is a practical strategy.
