    Pricing and Child Care Subsidy (CCS)

    Our holiday programs qualify for CCS, which helps to reduce the cost of holiday care for eligible families.

    The prices shown in our program schedule are the full fees before CCS is applied. If your family is eligible for CCS, your costs could be much lower.

    Visit our Child Care Subsidy page to learn more and calculate your potential savings.

    Need help? Please contact us. Our friendly customer service and onsite teams are happy to answer any questions about our pricing or CCS.
