Does Buddings accept subsidies?
Buddings is a small business that offers childcare services, but our Occasional License doesn’t qualify us for any of the financial relief programs. That means we are 100% funded by our customers. However, since childcare is tax deductible, you will get a receipt for every dollar you spend at Buddings towards reducing your income for taxes.
Can I put the account on hold? How do I cancel?
Submit a Change Form to membership@buddings.ca by the 15th of the month, for changes to take effect at the end of the month.
Ex: May 15 to cancel for June.
