    Enrollment Policy

    Kits House Childcare Enrollment and Priority Policy 

    The waitlist for Kits House childcare programs is not first come first served. We have a priority rating system to ensure that spaces in Childcare Programs are being offered to those families who are a priority for those we serve on the Westside, as well as providing a continuum of care.

    About

    Our programs are child-centered and play-based. Programs emerge from children’s interests, and staff seek to engage children in meaningful activity based on their input. As such, programs are flexible and responsive, and actively seek out and integrate children’s feedback.

    The Centre offers two daytimes sessions (2.5 hours each) of 20 licensed spaces for preschool group childcare. Children must be 30 months old at the time of enrollment (based on birth month rather than birth date) and must turn 36 months old in the same calendar year. This play-based program provides a stimulating and nurturing environment that includes all areas of development including arts, early literacy, science, math, drama, and physical development. 

    Preschool hours are Monday-Friday 9:15am-11:45am and 12pm-2:30pm. The preschool follows the Vancouver School Board calendar and is closed on all school closure days and statutory holidays. 

    Enrollment in our Preschool program is September-to-June; families may “opt-in” for summer care (if offered) as a separate program that does not change their school-year enrollment status. 

    Waitlist

    Families waitlisted by Hudson Child Care Society before September 1, 2024, will be transferred to Kits House Childcare systems and HCCS waitlist status will be honoured.

    The demand for childcare spots is high, we are doing our best to make spaces available for new families. Our waitlist is currently CLOSED. Please check Kits House’s website and social media regularly for when our waitlist will re-open.
