The Blue Whale Children’s Centre is not based on a business/private school/for-profit financial model, rather on a non-profit, family cooperative financial model, with equitable costing between participating families. We seek only to cover the basic necessary monthly costs: teacher salary, rent, insurance and supply costs. To do this, all member families share in these costs based on the number of days that their child participates in the program each month. Tuition rate will therefore be higher if there are less children participating and lower with more children participating.
The full-time administrators of the Centre, Lillian and Nadia (both of whom are mothers whose children participate in the program) take no pay in order to keep the costs as low as possible for all participating families.
If there is need, and we can make it work, we may be able to subsidize tuition fees in some circumstances.
Cost Estimates for Full versus Part Time
Full time program (5 days per week) = $650 - $800 per month
Part time program (3 days per week) = $390 - $450 per month
Part time program (2 days per week) = $290 - $320 per month
Before and after program care is also available at an additional cost.
