Daycare for Twins in Regina SK | CWELCC Double Enrollment | Daisy Days Daycare

Expecting twins — or already managing infant twins and returning to work — comes with unique childcare planning challenges. At Daisy Days Daycare in Regina SK, we welcome multiple-birth families and work to accommodate twin enrollment whenever possible. Here’s everything twin families need to know about licensed daycare in Regina SK.

CWELCC for Twins — Double the Savings

The CWELCC program applies to each child individually, making the savings for twin families extraordinary:

• Each twin pays approximately $10/day at Daisy Days Daycare
• Combined cost for twins in full-time care: approximately $20/day or $440/month
• Versus full-fee for twins: approximately $1,980-2,750/month
• Annual CWELCC savings for twin families: approximately $18,480-27,720/year

For twin families, the case for licensed CWELCC daycare is overwhelming — the savings alone represent a transformative household budget benefit.

Enrolling Twins — What to Plan For

Can Twins Be in the Same Room?

Typically yes, when twins are the same developmental age and size. Some families prefer their twins to be in the same room for ease of pickup and the comfort of siblings together; others prefer separate rooms for independent socialization. Discuss your preference with Daisy Days Daycare at enrollment — we work with families to find the best arrangement.

Waitlist Planning for Twins

Twin families face a unique challenge: they need TWO spots available simultaneously. This is significantly harder to arrange than one spot. Starting early is even more critical for twins than for single-child families. Contact Daisy Days Daycare during pregnancy — ideally in the second trimester — to discuss twin waitlist options.

Drop-Off and Pickup with Twins

Managing twin drop-off and pickup at daycare requires practical planning. Having both children in the same centre eliminates the logistical burden of two separate locations. At Daisy Days Daycare, we can coordinate arrival and departure procedures to make twin drop-off as smooth as possible.

Should Twins Be Kept Together or Separated at Daycare?

There is no single right answer. Research shows both approaches can work well:

• Together: Provides sibling comfort during transition, easier logistical management for parents
• Separated: Supports independent identity development, each twin develops their own peer relationships and social identity outside the twin relationship

Many twin development specialists recommend gradual separation — together initially, then separated as they settle. Discuss this with your Daisy Days Daycare team and your family physician.

Financial Assistance for Twin Families

In addition to CWELCC, twin families may access:

• Saskatchewan Child Care Subsidy (if income-eligible)
• CRA Child Care Expense Deduction for both children (up to $8,000/child under 7)
• Canada Child Benefit for both children

→ CWELCC savings for families with two children
→ Financial assistance for daycare in Regina SK
