Inspection summary
Hope Group Daycare Center has been inspected 9 times by Vancouver Coastal Health since November 16, 2023. The most recent inspection, on September 18, 2026, recorded 5 infractions.
1 of 9 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 4 inspections with 10 infractions recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct health risks.
The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.
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 7 times across 6 separate inspections, most recently on September 18, 2026. 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 5 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on September 8, 2025. For example:
Maintenance of Equipment: A log is kept of all inspections, maintenance and repairs. [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 These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.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 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on September 18, 2026. For example:
Implementation of the fire drill system is practiced at least once each month, and implementation of the emergency plan is practiced at least once each year. [CCLR Sec. 22(2)(b)(c)]
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 11 times across 7 separate inspections, most recently on September 18, 2026. For example:
A healthy and safe environment is provided at all times [CCLR Sec. 13(1)].
