More childcare spaces are being created in the North Okanagan.
The District of Coldstream will be creating 32 new child care spaces with a $637,800 grant from the Childcare BC New Spaces Fund.
The new facility, located in Lavington Park will create 12 spaces for children under 36 months; eight spaces for children 30 months to school-age and 12 spaces for school-age children.
Coldstream has partnered with Maven Lane which will operate the facility on the district’s behalf.
“We have heard from the community that there is a desperate need for additional child care spaces in Coldstream” said Mayor Jim Garlick. “The recent Child Care Needs Assessment Report showed a significant lack of available child care spaces in our area.”
Hollie Henderson, executive director of Maven Lane said, “We are grateful for the decision to place early learning and care at the forefront for the Lavington community. With this partnership, we will truly make a difference in the lives of the children and families we connect with.”
The district will immediately begin the procurement process for the construction of this new facility.
