    I honestly don`t think you should take it so personally. Obviously, if they are keeping the older child with you, they are happy with your daycare. As a parent, if I had an option to have my child in a free daycare (providing that it is a good daycare), I have to say I would take that option too over paying $800-$1000 more per month for the second child. It is a financial reality for parents that childcare is very expensive, so given a cheaper option if the parents feel that the child will be equally well-cared for in that situation, I don't blame them for choosing it. I am not sure what you mean by "tribal", but I am assuming it is perhaps for First Nations children and perhaps the program is also geared toward their particular needs? Anyway, I wouldn't be taking it personally!

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
