Daycare & Childcare Security in Calgary
Licensed, background-checked, child-safety-trained security officers for Calgary daycares, preschools, childcare centres, and after-school programs - discreet daytime coverage plus overnight and weekend protection.
Daycare & Childcare Security in - Calgary’s trusted choice.
MVP Security Inc. provides professional daycare and childcare security services to licensed facilities across Calgary. Our officers are fully vetted - Alberta security licence, criminal record check with vulnerable-sector screening, child intervention record check, and mandatory orientation on trauma-informed response, non-violent crisis intervention, and the specific safeguarding policies of each facility we protect.
Calgary's childcare sector has grown rapidly - the $10-a-day federal program, expanded YMCA and BGC Calgary programs, dual-language centres, and new standalone daycare operators across every quadrant. With that growth comes a sharper security profile: unauthorized pickups, custody disputes, lobby-trespass incidents, overnight break-ins targeting donation funds or IT equipment, and public-health audit scrutiny. Our daycare security Calgary service is built around these specific exposures, not generic commercial-property templates.
We serve daycares, preschools, Montessori programs, nursery schools, out-of-school-care programs, and private in-home childcare operations - across Calgary downtown, NE, NW, SE, SW, plus Airdrie, Cochrane, Okotoks, Chestermere, High River, Strathmore, Langdon, and the surrounding Rocky View and Foothills communities. Same-day coverage is available for urgent incidents - call our 24/7 dispatch at (587) 355-3113.

Frequently asked questions.
Yes - every officer holds a valid Alberta security licence plus a clean CPIC criminal record check with vulnerable-sector screening and an Alberta child intervention record check. We provide copies of all clearances to your facility director before the officer's first shift.
You choose. For visible deterrence at pickup/drop-off we recommend a uniformed presence in soft-uniform attire (polo/shell rather than tactical gear). For custody-dispute or safeguarding situations, plain-clothes discreet coverage is often the better call. We'll tailor the look to your facility's comfort level.
Yes. Bring us the court order or custody documentation, the identified individuals, and the pickup routine. We brief the on-shift officer, verify every pickup against the authorized-pickup list, and escalate appropriately if an unauthorized individual attempts contact. Our officers are trained on trauma-informed response around children in custody disputes.
Absolutely. We integrate with your monitored alarm provider and dispatch the nearest patrol unit on any trigger - typical Calgary response under 15 minutes. Officer investigates the site, secures any breach, liaises with Calgary Police Service if required, and emails you a full incident report the same night.
Yes. Family nights, open houses, graduation ceremonies, holiday concerts, AGMs, and fundraiser events - we staff licensed officers familiar with childcare environments. Bookings ideally made 1-2 weeks ahead to match the right personnel to the event; we also handle short-notice requests through our 24/7 dispatch.
