Summer Programming at Licensed Daycare in Regina SK — June, July & August 2026 | Daisy Days

Summer in Regina SK is short, warm, and full of outdoor opportunity. At Daisy Days Daycare, summer is one of our favourite times of year — licensed daycare continues through June, July, and August with enriched outdoor programming, water play, and summer learning activities. Here’s what families need to know about summer at Daisy Days Daycare.

Year-Round Licensed Daycare in Regina SK — Why It Matters

Unlike school programs, Daisy Days Daycare operates 12 months a year (closed on statutory holidays only). For working parents in Regina SK, year-round licensed care means:

• No scramble for summer childcare alternatives when school ends in late June
• CWELCC rates continue through summer — approximately $10/day, no increase
• Consistent routines and familiar educators through the summer months — important for children’s sense of stability
• Summer enrichment programming that working parents couldn’t otherwise access

What Summer Looks Like at Daisy Days Daycare

• Nature exploration: bug hunting, gardening, plant observation, outdoor art

• Shade areas in the outdoor space; extreme heat policies for temperatures above 32°C+

Summer BASC — Before & After School Care in Summer Mode

For school-age children (K-Grade 6) enrolled in Daisy Days Daycare’s BASC program, summer transitions to full-day summer care in June, July, and August:

• Full-day programming (7:00 AM to 6:00 PM) instead of before/after school hours
• CWELCC continues to apply at approximately $10/day
• Age-appropriate summer activities, field trips, and enrichment programming

If your school-age child is not currently enrolled in BASC but you need summer daycare, contact Daisy Days Daycare in April or May to check summer enrollment availability — summer spots for school-age children are popular.

What to Pack for Summer at Daisy Days Daycare

• Labeled sunscreen (SPF 30+ minimum)
• Wide-brimmed sun hat
• Water bottle (labeled)
• Extra change of clothes (water play produces wet clothing)
