Daycare centres are"full to the brim" with demand, and as the province offers new spots, centres say they have another limit: physical space.
According to Marsha Boyd-Mitchell, head of schools for Sussex Christian School, the school opened an early-learning centre for kids 15 months to four years old at Calvary Church in the fall of 2021, and is already considering expanding with all 90 spots full. "When someone calls and says, 'Can I move up on the waitlist?' it's almost painful for me," Deveau said.
"It's harder and harder, but I understand, because it's tricky. You're handling people's children, so it has to be safe," she said."It's a great thing in one way, but in another they are making it harder for spaces to be opened up." Renshaw said families should register for the department's waitlist, adding it"helps connect families with opportunities in their community and helps provide the department with a better understanding of child care space needs in New Brunswick communities.”
