All of you from Ontario are lucky that the age restrictions don't apply to you if you are private. Here in Saskatchewan it doesn't matter. Either way, you are supposed to follow their age/ratio regulations. I know a TON of providers who don't but you are supposed to.

I was with an Agency in Alberta. The agency was awesome and I loved the people that worked for the Agency. But there are drawbacks to being with an agency. We moved to Saskatchewan and am planning to re-open my dayhome here this fall (after my baby is born as I'm pregnant right now). I'm planning to go private.
