Why families across Vancouver choose Wise Owl for value you can see and afford.

At Wise Owl, we believe every child deserves exceptional care—and every parent deserves pricing that doesn’t come with sticker shock. That’s why we’ve worked hard to make our fees not only competitive, but fair, transparent, and fully aligned with our mission: to offer top-quality childcare without the premium tag.

Let’s break it down:

Our Current Rates

  • Full-time care: $750/month 
  • Preschool program: $565/month 
  • Drop-in care: $70/day 

How We Compare to Other Providers

Childcare rates in the Vancouver and Surrey area can vary widely, but here’s what we typically see:

  • Full-time care: $1,100–$1,700/month

Yes, You May Be Eligible for Government Funding

Wise Owl is proudly enrolled in British Columbia’s Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative (CCFRI) and Affordable Child Care Benefit (ACCB) programs. Depending on your income and family situation, you could pay significantly less—sometimes even under $100/month.

We’ll help walk you through the process. Many of our families are amazed at what they may qualify for!

Affordable Doesn’t Mean “Basic”

We hear this a lot: “I expected to pay more for this kind of care.” That’s because we’ve turned the traditional pricing model on its head. Instead of charging premium rates for a fancy brand name, we focus on what truly matters—a loving, stimulating, safe place where children learn and thrive.

And our families agree.

“We toured a few other places before Wise Owl, and they were charging almost double. But what stood out here wasn’t just the price—it was how well my child was cared for from day one.”
Christie, parent
