If you need to know for sure, google "dayhome regulations" or some such phrase, plus the name of your province. I know that where I am, a home child care centre (licensed or non) can have 6 children under 10 NOT including their own children, at ANY time. Of those kids, only 3 can be under 3. And of those kids, only 2 can be under 2 if you are licensed. And yes, the B/A school kids count.
This is only for licenced care in AB. If you're not with an agency you can have 6 kids (not including your own) of any age.
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.
