How Profitable is a Day Care Business in Canada?

With long waitlists and increasingly busy parents, approximately 40% of Canadian parents experience difficulties finding childcare making it an excellent industry to enter. High demand for childcare is translating into profit for daycare owners. According to Statistics Canada, almost 90% of all child daycares are profitable in Canada, which exceeds most industries.

 

What Determines a Daycare's Earning Potential

The revenue and profitability potential of a start-up daycare depends on the following factors:

  • YOUR DAYCARE SIZE: The more child care spaces you creates, the higher earning potential.

  • SPACE EFFICIENCY: Your ability to maximize the number of childcare spaces you can create with your space.

  • ABILITY TO REACH FULL CAPACITY: Your skills as the owner-operator to quickly fill your childcare spaces while maintaining positive parent satisfaction long-term.

  • HOW HANDS-ON YOU ARE: As wages are by far the largest typical expense line for your childcare business, your ability as the owner to provide supervisor and/or childcare services will allow you to minimize costs and maximize the centre's profitability.

  • PRICING: Higher premium childcare services offers greater revenue potential compared to an affordable price point. Your services should match the childcare needs in your proposed location, in terms of household income of surrounding neighbourhoods and gaps in your local childcare marketplace.

  • ADDITIONAL SERVICES OFFERED: Additional revenue can easily be created by offering parents services such as: overnight care, weekend care, pickup/drop off services, summer camps, etc.

  • NUMBER OF OWNERS: A top-heavy management team with full salary can put a significant strain on a daycare's bottom line in terms of profitability, compared to a more streamlined organizational structure.

Important Areas to Consider When Opening a Daycare

“How much financing do I need?”

Financing is the first step for most start-up daycares, providing you the necessary funds to cover leasehold improvements and other start-up costs. The question of how much financing you need is a very common question that depends on several factors. Firstly, do you want to purchase the building or lease? How big of a childcare centre do you have in mind? How much construction work will your space require? How much cash are you able or willing to invest in the business? By working through these details during the daycare business plan writing process, you will get clarity on how much is needed for your business.

“How do I qualify for a business loan?”

Business loans have specific requirements that are based on your financial situation and the quality of your childcare business plan.

  • Sufficient Collateral Asset - In most cases, you need a home mortgage or similar asset in order to qualify for a business loan.

  • Cash Investment - Once you identify total start-up costs, you will be required to invest a percentage in cash yourself. This is called “owners’ investment.” The amount you are willing or able to invest will determine the maximum loan size you qualify for.

  • Comprehensive Daycare Business Plan - Once you qualify for a business loan, the next step is you need to present and robust and realistic day care business plan that meets financing requirements. At Newton Group Marketing we specialize in this area to ensure you present the strongest possible plan to maximize your chances of getting financing.

“Do I need a location before applying for financing?”

No you don’t. Commercial real estate moves fast, so it is common to present your daycare business plan to the bank without a finalized location. This allows you to start the financing process beforehand so that you’re ready when the right location comes along.

“How do I find the right location”

There are many factors that go into finding the right location for your start-up daycare. Here are some questions to ask yourself: Which neighbourhood income levels match my daycare pricing? Where is there childcare demand and waitlists? Which communities are seeing population growth? What facility size matches my start-up budget? Can I comfortably commute regularly from home?
