May is child care month in BC. We hope you will join us!

BC Parent Voices

Our BC Parent Voices child care month message is a familiar one:
Child care — BC’s children deserve the best!

We have two BC Parent Voices child care month activities:

1. We have a sign to share our message. You can download and print the 8.5×11 sign (PDF) and/or you can request copies of the 11 x 17 sign from us (please send us your name and mailing address).

You can feature our child care message by putting up our BC Parent Voices signs. They will add colour to: a home window (perfect for one that your neighbours can see); a parents’ bulletin board in the child care facility; a bulletin board in your work place; and at your favourite community gathering spots.

2. We have a Mother’s day message to the Premier. You can join us in speaking out — We want to remind him “BC’s children deserve the best child care. We believe BC can afford to give our children the best start!”

You can e-mail him at premier@gov.bc.ca.

Either write your own short message OR
