New Democrat MLA Brittny Anderson says families in the<br />
<strong>Kootenay</strong>s will save money on childcare bills as local childcare<br />
centres become $10-a-Day ChildcareBC Centres where fees<br />
are capped at a maximum of $200 a month.<br />
“More and more families are able to get their kids into safe,<br />
nurturing childcare spaces here in the <strong>Kootenay</strong>s,” said MLA<br />
Anderson. “And we know those spaces also need to be affordable.<br />
We’re expanding our $10-a-day childcare options across<br />
the province and here at home, making sure that everyone who<br />
needs childcare can access it, and that kids have a good start to<br />
their educational journey.”<br />
As of <strong>Feb</strong>ruary 1, 2022, <strong>Kootenay</strong> Kids Society in Nelson,<br />
Corner Stones Childcare Centre in Revelstoke, Blossom & Bud<br />
Childcare in Creston, Little Badger Early Leaning Program in<br />
Windermere, and Stepping Stones Children’s Centre in Nakusp<br />
are all becoming $10-a-Day ChildCareBC sites. This will lower<br />
costs for the parents of the 158 children currently learning in<br />
these spaces.<br />
For families earning $111,000 or less, savings can be stacked<br />
with the BC Affordable Child Care Benefit to cut fees even further,<br />
meaning some parents are able to access childcare at no<br />
cost.<br />
More $10-a-day spaces throughout the province will be<br />
announced in the coming months as childcare providers are<br />
confirmed to participate.<br />
These new $10-a-Day ChildcareBC Centres are part of Government’s<br />
10-year ChildCareBC plan to build a future where<br />
childcare is a core service that’s available to every family that<br />
wants it, when they need it, at a price they can afford.<br />
