Qualified Early Childhood Educators (ECE¡¯s) offer children activities that promote early learning and healthy child development in a safe and nurturing environment.

"Staff at Prince Edward Day Care are very caring and patient ... PECCS has helped me as a parent by giving me peace of mind when leaving my baby. No parent wants to be away and worrying about their child and wondering how their day is going. PECCS has helped my child by teaching him about being with other children and how to talk about his feelings. He can tell me now when he is upset about something."

CHILD CARE FEE MENU

Flexible Care Option

This option offers the most flexibility for parents. It allows parents to determine the amount of day care they require and when they need it. Flexible Care may be half or full days dependent on your family's individual requirements. When parents wish to only pay for the care they actually require they can choose this option. Parents submit their child care requirements in advance on a bi-weekly basis.

                                  Full Day                     Half Day
Infant                          $45.00                         $24.00
Toddler                       $41.00                         $23.00
Preschool                   $37.00                         $22.00
School Age                 $36.50                         $20.00
Before/After School $7.00/$11.00

Fixed Care Option

This option is for parents seeking a secure, guaranteed space for their children. Parents who work a regular schedule and are seeking a consistent, dependable approach can take advantage of the lower cost to administrate this kind of care. The fixed option requires a commitment to either the Full or Half Day set schedule for renewable set periods (September - December, January - June and July and August). The fee will be a set, weekly fee determined at the start of the contract to reflect the reserved space for their child. The parent will be responsible to pay the set fee for the space and it is not associated with the actual time the child is in care. As a result the parent is assured of their child's reserved spot.

                                  Full Day                      Half Day
Infant                          $41.00                          $22.00
Toddler                        $38.00                         $20.50
Preschool                    $34.00                         $19.75
School Age                  $32.00                         $18.50
Before/After School $6.00/$9.00

Occasional Care Option

This type of child care offers the most options for the family who requires care for thie children on an irregular, as needed basis. Because of the increased administration and scheduling costs it is also the most expensive option. This option is available to families based on a first-come, first-served basis and is dependent on space availability.

                                   Full Day                     Half Day                        Hourly
Infant                           $47.50                         $25.00                           Under 2 yrs $7.50 to a maximum of $47.50
Toddler                        $45.00                         $24.00                           Over 2 yrs $6.00 to a maximum of $39.00
Preschool                    $39.00                         $23.00
School Age                  $39.00                         $22.00
Before/After School $8.00/$12.00

Relief Care Option

We realize that there may be circumstances where families and caregivers require relief care to meet the individual needs of their families. This care will be assessed on an individual basis and costs will be determined based on the requirements in each case. Contracts will outline the commitment and costs in these cases. Relief Care can be arranged by calling the Centre to arrange a consultation.
