Before Care

Before Care allows families flexibility in dropping off their children, with UBC Camps staff taking care of safely transporting campers to their morning or full day camp. A supervised play space with quieter games, colouring and crafts is provided. Only available for select camps on campus.

Please note: If you register for Before Care, you will drop your child off at the designated Before Care location. At the end of camp, you will pick them up either from their registered camp location or from After Care, if you have also registered for it. Pre-camp emails are sent on the Thursday prior to camp, and will contain specific information about drop-off and pick-up locations.

Important Registration Details
1. Prior to signing-up for Before Care, you must already be fully registered in an eligible on-campus morning or full day camp. 
2. Based on your registered camp location, you will need to choose Before Care located on either North Campus or South Campus.  
3. To check if your registered camp is eligible for Before Care, and whether you should choose the North Campus or South Campus option, please refer to the website description of your registered camp.
4. Registration for Before Care closes on the Monday prior to the start of camp, and we are unable to add campers once this deadline has passed. This timeline allows us to finalize staff schedules and program assignments, including the safe transfer of campers between programs.
5. Please note that we are unable to accommodate single-day or prorated registrations for Before Care.

If your morning or full day camp is in your shopping cart, or you are on a waitlist, the system will not allow you to add Before Care. You will only be able to sign-up for Before Care once you have fully registered (paid for) for your eligible morning or full day camp.
