  • LOOKING FOR CHILDCARE DURING YOUR MOVE?
    Packing and unpacking can be a challenge with little ones under your feet, or worse, the movers’ feet!  There are some childcare options for you to consider if you don’t have a babysitter already arranged for your (un)packing and moving days. (1) The Comox MFRC has a babysitter list to facilitate finding a babysitter. (2) Weekly Kids Camps are available for kids 4—5 and 6—11 yrs, phone Kinnikinnik Childcare Centre at 250-339-8032  for complete details.
    (3)Kinnikinnik Childcare Centre may have drop-in daycare spaces available for children under 5, call 250-339-8032 to see if they can accommodate your child(ren). (4) If these options are not possible we may still be able to help. With advance notice we can contact our screened childcare providers to see if someone is available on the days you need them.  Contact the Emergency & Respite Childcare Coordinator, (Mrs.) Alex Greenwood at 250-339-8211 ext 8310 or email Alex.Greenwood@forces.gc.ca.
