Child & Day Care in Fernie, Canada

If you go to the CCRR website: https://www.childcarechoices.ca/main/Interior/East+Kootenay/ You can fill out a form & they will let you know? I believe that's how it works :) https://www.childcarechoices.ca/main/Interior/East+Kootenay/Referral/

Barbara Enns good info here.

You can call CCRR and they would be able to help you out. 250-426-5677 Or you can go to the iha website into the child care section and it will give a list of licensed providers

Contact the child care Referral Services and they will give you a list of registered child care providers. 1-800-661-2445 they will be open again on Monday.

Sparwood Treehouse Daycare is awesome!

That is very strange. They are really good there. Are you calling 425-4443? They are open m-f 6:15 am to 5:30 pm. Or stop in during those hours.

Hi. My wife and I run Doggone Adventures. We have quite a few dogs in Sparwood, and some that come from Elkford. We do day watches at our home that include a group adventure (7 dogs max). We offer a few other services that may help if that doesn't suit your needs. You can check out our Facebook page, our website (doggoneadventuresbc.ca) or give us a call at 250-430-7947.

Nicholle Auger does child care in Elkford.

Hi Ashley! Just a little information on child to adult ratios and types of child care. Licensed not required can be registered or unregistered. Type of care where it's in providers home and is usually providers child(ren) and maximum 2 other children not related to the provider. Licensed Family care which is aprovider that has taken the family care course or related education, in the provider's hone and can have up to 7 children. There are restrictions on the ages of children and how many in each age group. In home Multiage group care which is a provider that has completed their early childhood education, in the provider's home and can take up to 8 children with 3 of those being 3 years and younger. Group care which is the larger facilities like sparwood treehouse daycare. Again these providers are ece trained and the ratio for infant/toddlers is one adult to four little ones. With any sort of licensed care the providers in addition to education will have criminal records checks and first aide. Should you chose to hire someone privately and ask for a criminal record check - the ones the local RCMP do are not the same as the ones that are required under the community care act that licenses facilities. You may want to do a little more research of criminal records to ensure you are getting the check that you want. Also I would recommend contacting east Kootenay child care resource and referral (426 5677). The ladies there are fantastic and can help put you in contact with regulated or licensed care in your area as well as give you fee schedules for different places. May help you narrow down your search for child care to places that are available and meet your criteria. Hope the info helps. Take care
