Little Scout lists 27 licensed group daycares in Port Alberni. All 27 are centre-based facilities, and none are licensed family child care homes.

Costs vary by facility, but most licensed providers in BC participate in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative, which can reduce fees by roughly $350 to $900 per month depending on age and facility type. Some centres also participate in the $10-a-Day ChildCareBC program, which caps full-time fees at $200 per month per child.

BC 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 centres at once.
