What to know about childcare in New Westminster
Among the most-reviewed centres in New Westminster are Little Footprints Academy (New West), Willowbrae Childcare Academy, and Tulip Childcare Center. Ratings on MapleCub come from Google and are shown with their review counts — a small number of reviews is weak evidence, so we don't treat a handful of five-star reviews as proof of quality.
Of the 101 New Westminster listings, 2 accept infants, and 17 are licensed home-based (family) daycares. 19 hold a Google rating of 4.5★ or higher among centres with enough reviews to judge. Every listing is checked against British Columbia's Ministry of Education and Child Care licensing records, and where the province publishes inspection or enforcement data, it appears directly on the provider's page.
