Find Daycares with Vacancies in Lake Country.

This page lists 6 licensed facilities in Lake Country that are currently showing vacancies. That includes 5 licensed group child care centres and 1 licensed family child care home. Availability changes frequently, so contact each facility directly to confirm.

Licensed group child care is centre-based and can serve larger numbers of children, organized by age band. Licensed family child care operates in the provider's home and is limited to a maximum of 7 children. Lake Country's vacancies currently include both types, giving you a couple of different settings to consider.

Many licensed BC daycares participate in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative, which automatically lowers fees by commonly $350 to $900 per month depending on your child's age and the facility type. Some facilities also participate in the $10-a-Day ChildCareBC program, which caps full-time fees at $200 per month and is open to any BC family regardless of income. Ask each Lake Country facility directly which programs they are enrolled in.

BC childcare advisors recommend starting your search during pregnancy, ideally in the first trimester, because demand significantly outpaces supply across the province. If a space is open now, it is worth applying right away. Since BC banned waitlist fees in April 2024, there is no cost to applying to multiple facilities at once.
