Frequently asked questions

How many licensed preschool daycares are there in Kelowna?

How much does licensed preschool care cost in Kelowna?

Fees vary by facility, but most licensed providers in BC participate in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative, which automatically reduces fees by commonly $350 to $900 per month depending on age band and facility type. Some sites are also approved $10-a-Day centres, capping full-time fees at $200 per month per child for any BC family, regardless of income.

When should I start looking for a preschool spot in Kelowna?

BC child care advisors recommend starting your search during pregnancy, ideally in the first trimester, because demand for licensed spaces significantly outpaces supply across the province. Since BC banned waitlist fees in April 2024, there is no cost to applying to multiple facilities at once, so applying broadly is a smart strategy.
