What ages does Turtle Tots Daycare care for?

The provincial record for Turtle Tots Daycare has no age groups filled in. That means the operator has not completed this part of its entry, not that the facility serves no children of a given age. Phone 604-475-1409 and ask directly which age groups it is licensed for and currently taking.

How do I contact Turtle Tots Daycare?

The Province's record lists Turtle Tots Daycare at 34-3046 Coast Meridian Rd, Port Coquitlam, V3B 5B6, with the phone number 604-475-1409. Phone numbers in this dataset are supplied by the operator and can change without the record being updated.

Does Turtle Tots Daycare take part in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative?

The provincial dataset does not record Turtle Tots Daycare as participating in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative as of 2026-09-07. Participation changes as facilities opt in, so check the Province's own fee reduction pages or ask the facility directly rather than treating this as settled.

Does Turtle Tots Daycare have space available?

The operator last updated its vacancy information on 2026-07-02 and reported no open spaces at that point. Waitlists move, and many operators update this field rarely, so phone the facility to ask about its current waitlist rather than ruling it out.

Turtle Tots Daycare

Q: Is Turtle Tots Daycare a licensed childcare facility?

Turtle Tots Daycare appears in the Province of British Columbia's Child Care Map data as a Licensed Family facility, in the copy of that dataset fetched on 2026-09-07. A family facility is licensed to care for a small number of children in the provider's own home. It is inspected by Fraser Health and held to the Child Care Licensing Regulation in the same way a group facility is, with limits set for the number and ages of children in care at one time. Licences are issued and enforced by Fraser Health's Community Care Facilities Licensing program, not by this directory, so confirm current status with Fraser Health before you rely on it.

Turtle Tots Daycare is recorded by the Province of British Columbia as a family facility at 34-3046 Coast Meridian Rd in Port Coquitlam. Everything below comes from the Province's Child Care Map data, fetched 2026-09-07, and most of it is supplied by the operator rather than verified.

Open spaces, as reported by the operator

Turtle Tots Daycare reported no open spaces when it last updated this on 2026-07-02.

Operators update this field themselves and many do so rarely. Treat it as a reason to phone, not as a space held for you.

Before you phone

What the provincial record does not say

Operators fill in their own entry in the Province's Child Care Map, and most leave parts of it blank. A blank field records one thing only: that nobody filled it in. The centre may well offer it. These are the details this record cannot answer for you, and what to ask on the phone.

Age groups
The record does not say which ages Turtle Tots Daycare is licensed for. Ask which age groups it takes, whether it has a separate infant and toddler programme, and at what age a child moves between rooms.
Hours
No hours are recorded. Ask for the opening and closing times, whether there is early drop-off or late pick-up, and what the late fee is.
Languages
No languages are recorded beyond English. If a second language matters to you, ask which languages the educators speak with the children day to day, and how often.
Meals
Nothing is recorded about food. Ask whether meals and snacks are included, whether they cost extra, and how allergies are handled.
Supported child development
The record does not indicate support for children who need extra help. If that applies to your child, ask directly about the facility's experience and whether it works with a supported child development consultant.
Website
No website is recorded for Turtle Tots Daycare. Most family providers and many smaller centres do not run one, so a phone call is usually the only way to get current fees and waitlist information.
Fee Reduction Initiative
The record does not show this facility taking part in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative, which lowers the fees parents pay. Facilities opt in and out, so ask whether it takes part now and what the fee is once the reduction is applied.

Licence

What a Licensed Family licence means

A family facility is licensed to care for a small number of children in the provider's own home. It is inspected by Fraser Health and held to the Child Care Licensing Regulation in the same way a group facility is, with limits set for the number and ages of children in care at one time.

A licence is issued and enforced by Fraser Health's Community Care Facilities Licensing program. To confirm that Turtle Tots Daycare holds a current licence, or to read what inspectors have recorded there, search Fraser Health's public database rather than relying on this page. Fraser Health is the authority, and its record takes priority over anything in this directory.

The rules that apply here

What the law requires of a family facility

The Province's dataset records the licence category but not the care programme. A family facility in this dataset will be running one of these two, and the difference between them matters: one requires the provider to hold an early childhood educator certificate and one does not.

Family Child Care

Maximum group: 7 children, cared for personally by the licensee, who must be a responsible adult

7 or fewer, with a child under 12 months present: The licensee. No more than 3 children under 48 months, and only one of those under 12 months
7 or fewer, no child under 12 months: The licensee. No more than 4 children under 48 months, of whom no more than 2 under 24 months

In-Home Multi-Age Child Care

Maximum group: 8 children of various ages, in the licensee's own home

8 or fewer: The licensee, who must be certified as an educator. No more than 3 children under 36 months, and only one under 12 months

The building itself

An indoor and an outdoor play area: Family Child Care is exempt from the 3.7 m² per child indoor rule and from the 6 m² per child outdoor figure that group facilities must meet, but it must still provide both kinds of play area.
One toilet and wash basin per 10 children or fewer: Unlike a group facility, these need not be on the same floor as the care area.
A separate sleeping area away from activity areas: Required wherever the programme cares for any child under 36 months.
Water no hotter than 49°C anywhere a child can reach: Applies to all heated water accessible to children.
The group size excludes the licensee's own older relatives: In Family Child Care and In-Home Multi-Age Child Care only, a person aged 12 or over related to the licensee does not count within the group size.

These are legal minimums that apply to every facility in this category in British Columbia, including Turtle Tots Daycare. Many facilities staff and equip themselves well above them, and this page reports only the floor, since the Province’s dataset records nothing about how any individual facility operates. Fraser Health inspects against these rules and publishes what it finds.

Funding

What a family could claim at a family facility

These are the maximum monthly amounts the Province publishes for this licence category. What a particular family receives is calculated by the ministry against its own tables, and the Affordable Child Care Benefit is income tested. Treat both as ceilings set by the Province. What Turtle Tots Daycare charges is a separate figure, and only the facility can tell you what it is.

Situation	Affordable Child Care Benefit	Fee Reduction Initiative
Child under 19 months	up to $1,000 a month	up to $600 a month
Child 19 to 36 months	up to $1,000 a month	up to $600 a month
Child 36 months to school age	up to $550 a month	up to $500 a month

The Province's dataset carries no Fee Reduction Initiative status for Turtle Tots Daycare. Treat that as unknown rather than as an answer, because providers with an application in progress are left out of the Province's search results. Ask the facility directly, and check the Province's own child care map. The Affordable Child Care Benefit is the one a family has to apply for, and it must be claimed before the end of the month in which care is needed.

On the phone

What to ask a family facility

These follow from the licence category rather than from anything recorded about Turtle Tots Daycare. The Province's dataset cannot answer any of them.

Which of the two family programmes the licence names, since In-Home Multi-Age requires the provider to hold an ECE certificate and Family Child Care does not
How many children who are not the provider's own are present at once, and their ages
What happens when the provider is ill or on holiday, since a single caregiver has no colleague to cover
Whether the provider holds a current first aid and CPR certificate

Where this came from

Everything recorded about Turtle Tots Daycare on this page comes from Child Care Map Data, published by the Province of British Columbia, Ministry of Education and Child Care under the Open Government Licence for British Columbia and fetched on 2026-09-07. Most fields in that dataset are supplied by each operator about its own facility and are not verified by the Province.

This directory is published by La Vie Est Belle Childcare Centre. It is not run by, connected to, or endorsed by the Province of British Columbia or Fraser Health. To confirm a licence or read an inspection history, contact Fraser Health's Community Care Facilities Licensing program directly, since that is the authority that issues and enforces the licence.
