Exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly successful for-profit daycare located in a prime area of Calgary NE. This well-established and fully operational childcare center is licensed for 70 children and has been running at full capacity. The business also launched an Out-of-School Care program in September 2025, creating additional growth and revenue potential. This turn-key operation benefits from the Alberta Affordability Grant and a strong reputation within the community. Operations commenced in March 2025, with rapid enrollment growth driven by the center’s prime location and high demand for childcare in the area. The property offers a secure long-term lease with over nine years remaining plus two additional five-year renewal options, and rent includes operating costs. Confidentiality agreement required. PLEASE DO NOT APPROACH STAFF OR VISIT THE BUSINESS WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT.

Business valuation calculator
SDE is what the business earns an owner who works in it — profit with the owner’s own pay, interest, depreciation and one-off costs added back. EBITDA leaves the owner’s pay in as a cost, because it assumes a manager does the job. Small businesses are usually priced on SDE and larger ones on EBITDA, and mixing them up is how a buyer overpays.

Arithmetic on the numbers you enter — not a valuation, not an appraisal and not financial advice. Real multiples vary enormously by industry, lease terms and how much the business depends on its owner. Have an accountant review the actual books before you rely on any of it.

What this space costs per month
Commercial rent is quoted per square foot per year. This turns it into the cheque you actually write — and adds the operating costs, which are quoted separately and routinely add a third again.
