Where am I on the waitlist?
- There are many factors that determine who will be offered a space in our childcares. Therefore, we are unable to respond to requests regarding where your child is on the waitlist. However, we are able to confirm that your child is still on the waitlist
How long can I expect to wait for an offer of childcare space?
-
Generally, most spaces become available in August when some children leave our programs to attend Kindergarten. It is very difficult to predict when a space will become available.
-
NSNH cannot guarantee space at any of our childcares. We strongly recommend that you apply to other programs as well as ours.
- North Shore Community Services (NSCR) can provide information about Childcare in the community. nscr.bc.ca 604-985-7138
Can I tour a childcare centre before I accept a space?
- We do not offer tours of our childcare sites. However, we are able to share photos of each centre. Please click here to view photos: https://nsnh.bc.ca/children/childcare-sites/
Is there a waitlist application fee?
- No
I no longer want to be on the waitlist. Can I give my spot to someone else?
- No. Each child must have their own application. There are no substitutes for friends, relatives, or siblings
Can I apply for government subsidy?
- Yes. This is the link to Affordable Child Care Benefit: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/family-social-supports/caring-for-young-children/child-care-funding/child-care-benefit
