Using BC paternity/partner parental leave to cover the daycare settling-in period in 2026 — many Coquitlam families have the second parent take their parental leave at the point when primary leave ends to cover the 5-day settling-in at Smiling Kids, reducing pressure on the baby and ensuring one parent is available if pickup is needed early during the transition.
For information on BC childcare subsidies and licensed daycare regulations, visit the Government of BC Childcare Resources. Smiling Kids Childcare Centre is a licensed childcare facility meeting all BC childcare regulations.
