Find CCFRI Daycares (Fee Reduction) in Cumberland.

There are 10 licensed childcare facilities in Cumberland that participate in CCFRI. That includes 4 Licensed Group centres and 6 Licensed Family homes.

Licensed Group centres are facility-based programs that serve children by age band, such as infants, toddlers, or school-age kids. Licensed Family homes operate in the provider's residence and can care for a maximum of 7 children at a time. Cumberland's CCFRI listings include both types, giving families different options for setting and group size.

CCFRI is a provincial program where the childcare operator opts in on your behalf, so parents do not need to submit a separate application. Fee reductions commonly range from $350 to $900 per month depending on the child's age and facility type. About 94% of BC's licensed providers participate, and CCFRI can be combined with other benefits like the Affordable Child Care Benefit.

BC advisors recommend starting your search during pregnancy, ideally in the first trimester, because demand for licensed childcare significantly outpaces supply across the province. Applying to multiple facilities at once improves your chances, and since BC banned waitlist fees in April 2024, there is no cost to applying broadly.
