Important Update: Alberta’s New Childcare Flat Fee Structure

We’re excited to share important news about significant changes to childcare fees in Alberta. Starting April 1, 2025, the Government of Alberta is implementing a universal flat fee structure of $15/day for all licensed childcare programs.

New Fee Structure

Effective April 1, 2025, your monthly fees will be:

Full-Time Care (100+ hours/month)

$326.25 per month

Includes hot lunch, snacks, activities, and materials

Part-Time Care (50-99 hours/month)

$230.00 per month

Includes hot lunch, snacks, activities, and materials

What This Means For You

1) The previous subsidy program has been discontinued
2) These rates apply to all age groups
3) All-inclusive fee covers meals, snacks, and programming
4) Supplemental fees may apply for optional extra snack
