How infants and toddlers manage long days at BC licensed daycare in 2026 — a full day in licensed care (7:30 AM – 5:30 PM) is a long day for young children. Quality centres structure the day to prevent overstimulation: predictable routines, quiet rest times, individual nap schedules for infants, and the knowledge that research shows children in high-quality care have similar stress hormone profiles to home-cared children.
