Frequently asked questions
How many licensed daycares are there in Kaleden?
Little Scout lists 3 licensed childcare facilities in Kaleden: 1 Licensed Group centre and 2 Licensed Family homes. Because supply is limited in smaller communities, reaching out to multiple providers as early as possible is strongly recommended.
What is the difference between a Licensed Group centre and a Licensed Family home in Kaleden?
A Licensed Group centre is a facility-based program that can serve more children across different age bands. A Licensed Family home operates in the provider's residence and is limited to a maximum of 7 children. Kaleden has 1 of the former and 2 of the latter.
When should I start looking for childcare in Kaleden?
BC guidance is to start looking during pregnancy, ideally in the first trimester. With only 3 licensed facilities in Kaleden, spaces can fill quickly, so early action matters. Since April 2024, waitlist fees have been banned in BC, so there is no cost to applying broadly.
Are there programs to help reduce childcare fees in Kaleden?
Yes. About 94% of BC licensed providers participate in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative, which automatically reduces fees with no parent application required. Some facilities may also participate in the $10-a-Day ChildCareBC program, capping fees at $200 per month. The Affordable Child Care Benefit is an additional income-tested option for families earning under roughly $111,000 per year.
