The Canadian Child Care Federation is Canada’s largest national, non-profit, charitable ELCC organization. 

The Child Care Operating Funding (CCOF) is available for eligible licensed providers and can assist with the day-to-day costs of running a licensed childcare facility. It also enhances early childhood educator wages and reduces fees for families.

Find CCOF eligibility requirements, information, and application forms on the Government of BC CCOF website.

Eligibility requirements

Child Care Resource and Referral (CCRR) centres make it easier for families to find and access responsive and inclusive quality licensed and registered child care by providing information, support, resources and referral services to parents and child care providers across the province.

The Ministry of Education and Child Care provides funding to CCRRs, which work in partnership with the government to improve the accessibility, affordability, and quality of child care in all B.C. communities.
