OneSpace offers childminding services for parents while they use our coworking space or see a practitioner. Parents or guardians must stay on site while their child is in the Children's Atelier. Our Childcare Providers are trained Early Childhood Educators (ECE’s), and OneSpace adheres closely to the Vancouver Coastal Health Daycare Licensing guidelines. Daycare licensing isn't required for childminding.

OneSpace Childcare Providers are Early Childhood Educators (ECE’s). OneSpace Childcare Providers also have First Aid Certification, criminal record checks, and additional individual certifications around childcare.

Yes! We work with you and your little one during this important time. We ask parents to inform our Children’s Atelier Team about your child’s potty training transition prior to coming into the space without a diaper/pull-up. OneSpace reserves the right to request that your child move from underwear to pull-ups if accidents are frequent. We do not accept individual potties in adherence to health and safety guidelines.

Parents are welcome to view the Children’s Atelier on the Parent Spy Cam to see how their children are doing!

As parent "ins and outs" can be disruptive for children, we ask that parents do not come in to the Children’s Atelier to settle their child if their child is upset. If your child is unable to settle, our Children’s Atelier Team will let a OneSpace Team Member know that your child is ready to go home, and that Team Member will let you know.

If you feel your child will be unable to settle, you are free to pick them up early! Please do not stress if this happens with your child - it's perfectly normal as children acclimatize to the space!

For everyone’s safety we ask that parents remain in the gated cubby area of the Children's Atelier for pick up and drop off only.

Parents/guardians are asked to bring nut-free food for their children.

We do have snacks for purchase if food is forgotten or children are still hungry.

Snacktime: 10:30am and 2:30pm

Lunchtime: 12:45pm

Yes! There is street parking available along William Street and Odlum Drive. The Britannia Community Centre is located a few blocks away and has a large free parking lot.
