Fees & Policies

​​
Registration for the current school year and for the 2025-2026 school year is open. Please complete one of the forms below to secure your child’s placement.

Registration Fee: A one-time $50 non-refundable deposit is due at time of registering to confirm your child’s spot.

Monthly Fees: Monthly fees are required via pre-authorized debit on the first of each month. A PAD form, along with our welcome package, will be emailed to you once your registration fee has been paid.

Waitlist Fee: Due to the current high demand of child care, a fee of $20 will be required to join our waitlist.

Withdrawal Policy: One full calendar month’s notice is required for withdrawal. Written notice must be provided before the first of the month prior to leaving. For example, if you are leaving on December 10th, notice must be given before November 1st otherwise your December fees will still be due.

Meals & Snacks: Meals and snacks are not provided. Parents are required to send a hearty lunch and snacks daily. A fridge, microwave, and toaster are available at some centres and program staff are happy to help heat up lunches if needed. The program will provide emergency snacks in the event that a child has run out of food.

Affordability Grant: Little Steps is part of the Alberta Government’s Affordability Grant program which enables us to lower our fees to $15 per day for all children in our program from 0 to kindergarten age. Parents do not need to apply to benefit from the grant fee reduction. The flat monthly parent fee for all children in our program 0 to kindergarten age is $326.25. For more information, click HERE.

Subsidy: The Affordability Grant does not include children in grades 1 to 6. Subsidy for families with children in school remains available to those who earn under $90,000 gross annually. In order to receive subsidy, parents must apply through the Alberta Government website. For more information and to apply, click HERE.
