Frequently asked questions
How many licensed childcare facilities are there in Keremeos?
Little Scout lists 3 licensed facilities in Keremeos: 1 licensed group child care centre and 2 licensed family child care homes. With a small number of options in the area, it is a good idea to contact all of them as early as possible.
What is the difference between a group centre and a family child care home in Keremeos?
A licensed group child care centre is a dedicated facility that serves children in age-based classrooms. A licensed family child care home operates in the provider's own residence and is capped at 7 children, offering a smaller, more intimate setting. Keremeos has one of each type, plus a second family home.
When should I start looking for childcare in Keremeos?
BC advisors recommend starting your search during pregnancy, ideally in the first trimester. With only 3 licensed facilities in Keremeos, spaces are limited and filling early is important. Since BC banned waitlist fees in April 2024, there is no cost to applying to multiple facilities at once.
Are there programs to help reduce childcare fees in Keremeos?
Yes. The Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative (CCFRI) automatically lowers fees at participating licensed providers, with no application required from parents. Families who qualify can also stack the Affordable Child Care Benefit on top, and some centres may participate in the $10-a-Day ChildCareBC program, which caps fees at $200 per month per child.
