BC guidance is to begin your search during pregnancy, ideally in the first trimester, because demand for licensed spaces significantly outpaces supply across the province. Since April 2024, BC has banned waitlist fees, so there is no cost to applying to multiple centres at once.

Most licensed BC providers participate in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative (CCFRI), which automatically lowers fees without any application from parents. Some centres 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. Lower-income families may also qualify for the Affordable Child Care Benefit on top of these programs.
