Frequently Asked Questions About Daycares in Merritt
How long are daycare waitlists in Merritt?
Waitlist times vary by age group and daycare. Infant spots (0-36 months) typically have the longest waits, often 12-18 months. Toddler and preschool spots may have shorter waits of 3-6 months. We recommend joining waitlists as early as possible, ideally during pregnancy.
When should I join a daycare waitlist in Merritt?
It's best to join daycare waitlists as soon as possible, ideally during pregnancy or shortly after your child is born. Peak enrollment times are in September, so joining waitlists 12-18 months in advance is recommended for infant care.
How do I know if a daycare has current openings in Merritt?
Daycares in BC report their vacancy information to the province periodically. On Wee Queue, we display this data with vacancy indicators showing availability by age group (Under 36 months, 30-60 months, and Grade 1-Age 12). Each listing shows when the vacancy information was last updated by the daycare, and you can join waitlists directly through the platform.
What types of daycare licenses are available in Merritt?
BC has several types of licensed child care. The two main types you'll find on Wee Queue are Licensed Group child care (larger centers) and Licensed Family child care (home-based care with smaller groups). Both must meet BC's health, safety, and program quality standards.
