Hello

A licensed childcare (the home is licensed not the caregiver) may only have 7 children and there are very strict rules about the ages of the children that may be present. You may have another caregiver over (as long as they have criminal record searches done), but you cannot exceed the 7 children and age limit restrictions. Regulations state that a caregiver that is not licensed may only have 2 children on the premises or 3 if 2 are siblings. Regulations state that you may not share a nanny if she will be caring for more than 2 children.
Regulations are very strict in BC. but on nice days we do have the chance to visit in the parks and playgrounds.
