Inspection summary

Creative Daycare has been inspected 9 times by Vancouver Coastal Health since May 10, 2021. The most recent inspection, on October 16, 2025, recorded 3 infractions.

3 of 9 inspections on record found no infractions at all. No inspections are on record from the past 12 months. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct health risks.

Recent inspections have recorded more infractions than earlier ones, so it is worth reading the latest reports closely.

What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people in care. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly make someone sick, and they matter more here because young children, older adults and people who are unwell are more vulnerable to infection.

  • Food safety training and certificationLower risk

    Many jurisdictions require a trained or certified person on site, such as a certified food handler. These findings mean the training record or the trained person was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean anything was handled unsafely.

    Recorded 4 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on October 16, 2025. For example: The licensee keeps a current record for each child showing the information required. [CCLR Sec. 57]

  • Equipment and utensilsLower risk

    Equipment has to be made of cleanable materials, kept in good repair and stored properly. These findings are mostly about upkeep, like a cracked surface or worn part. They are generally lower risk but show how well the place is maintained.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on July 20, 2022. For example: Materials and Equipment: Height of equipment does not exceed requirements of Safe Play Space Standard of Practice. [Director of Licensing Standard of Practice - Safe Play Space]

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.

    Recorded once on October 16, 2025. For example: Current policies and procedures are kept as required . [CCLR Sec.56(1)(2) and CCALA 19]

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on October 16, 2025. For example: A healthy and safe environment is provided at all times [CCLR Sec. 13(1)].
