The fees for a child attending a normal length of day (4-10 hours) are as follows:
Infant Care
– $10.00/day*
– plus an additional program/facility fee of $25.00/billing period
Preschool Care
– $10.00/day*
– plus an additional program/facility fee of $25.00/billing period
School-age
– $10.00/day on a school day & $20.80/day* for a non-school day
– plus an additional program/facility fee of $25.00/billing period
Nursery School
– $5.00/session (2.5 hour day)
– plus an additional program/facility fee of $12.50/billing period
*fees do change for children attending longer than 10 hours/day
The Government of Manitoba does have a fee subsidy program which is based on the subsidy eligibility calculator and can drop the fees down to $2.00/day for regular programs or even down to $0.00 (zero) for Nursery School. Please refer to the Manitoba Education and Early Childhood website at: https://www.gov.mb.ca/education/childcare/families/childcare_subsidies.html
You will find the fees at Discovery very similar to other programs because in Manitoba the Provincial government regulates the maximum fees we are allowed to charge, with only a few programs exempt from this regulation.
