    Our Philosophy & Daycare Fees

    Early childhood education can set the foundation as a child grows. In fact, learning through play is one of the most effective ways for young children to learn. Using play as a way to teach makes it fun and engaging for the child.

    Even from a young age, simple games like peek-a-boo, sorting, and knocking over blocks or even fitting shapes into a cut-out help develop motor skills and problem-solving abilities. Roughly 80% of brain development is completed by age three, and by age five, that number reaches 90%. This is why it’s important to begin setting the foundation before your child even starts Kindergarten.

    SUBSIDY

    As you may have heard, Alberta has reached a deal with the federal government to reduce the cost of child care through an affordability grant.  All families that attend a licensed facility will receive this monthly grant regardless of family income.  The amount that a family receives per month is based on the age of children attending daycare and the number of days per week children attend:

    19 Months to Under 3 Years Old
    3 Years to Kindergarten Age
    3 to 5 Days/Week

    $510/month

    $450/month

    1 to 2 Days/Week

    $255/month

    $225/month


    In addition to the affordability grant, families may qualify for an additional $106 to $266 in subsidy based on their family income.  Please
    click this link if you would like to apply for this additional subsidy.

    With the above two subsidies, 1 – 3 day a week child care may be completely free while 4 – 5 day a week child care will be much more affordable.
