Annual closure

We have one annual closure in December between Christmas and New Year’s Day. Please note that the monthly fee is not reduced for this month.

Visitor information

Our innovative programs receive significant interest from visitors—other educators and administrators, plus researchers, architects, licensing officers and more.

Interested in visiting? 

If you are interested in visiting any of our settings, please contact our Program Manager to discuss opportunities.

Authorized access only

For the safety, security and privacy of everyone involved, all visitors must be authorized by our Program Manager before entering our child care centres. Photos may not be taken, unless authorized, and any photos must be restricted to the facilities and equipment—no staff or children.

Pre-acceptance visits for families

Parents, guardians and families are only eligible to visit or tour a setting once they receive an offer.

Research opportunities

We welcome requests to engage in research projects. To propose a research project at UBC Child Care, please contact our Program Manager for further information.

Approval for any research projects must be granted by the Child Care Associate Director. Child and family involvement in approved research is entirely voluntary, and no research involving children will be carried out without the consent of individual parents or guardians.
