Maximum Affordability — Stacking All Available Supports

Regina SK families can access multiple overlapping financial supports to minimize childcare costs even further:

Layer 1: CWELCC (Universal — All Families)

~$10/day at Daisy Days Daycare regardless of income, employment status, or family structure. The baseline for all enrolled families.

Layer 2: Saskatchewan Childcare Subsidy (Income-Tested)

For lower-income families: applied ON TOP of CWELCC. Can reduce the ~$10/day further, potentially to zero. Apply through Saskatchewan Social Services: 1-866-221-5200. Single parents are often strongly eligible since only their income is assessed. Subsidy guide →

Layer 3: CRA T778 Tax Deduction

Even at ~$2,640/year (CWELCC rate), your Daisy Days Daycare fees are fully claimable on your CRA T1 return as a childcare expense. Up to $8,000/year per child under 7. Reduces net income — meaningful tax savings at any income level. T778 guide →

Layer 4: Canada Child Benefit (CCB)

The CCB provides monthly income for families with children. Not a childcare-specific payment, but part of the overall family affordability picture — particularly for lower-income families.
