Hi

A bit of a long post. I have been a nanny for 18yrs and then opened a home daycare for the last 5. My background was as a Child and Youth worker(briefly) before I took my first nanny position that paid batter.
Previous to opening my home daycare, I took 9 months to set up our home with safety features/equipment. I registered with the CCPRN and took many seminars on everything from how to start a home daycare, tax preparation, activities etc. I felt prepared and it has been going very well.
I have a communication book that every family gets when their child begins. It includes the daily communication sheets, a copy of my first aid/cpr certificate, a copy of our contract and a copy of mine and my husbands criminal record check. My question is this. How many of you provide criminal record checks for your spouses? My husband got a DUI in 1998 that showed up on his criminal record check. Because of this we wanted to show that he is not a threat to the vulnerable sector, so we went further to get his fingerprints checked to ensure that he wasn't charged with anything else and that he was never convicted of any expunged crimes that would be a threat to the vulnerable sector. I include his extended record check for disclosure.
Is it enough that I am providing this record check of his? Do I have to tell every interview the nature of his charge from 16yrs ago? I just lost a client for September because I didn't tell them the nature of his conviction (until they just asked)and now they say they're wondering what else i've been holding back..Do we do drugs or have a drinking problem? I didn't even know my husband when he made that one stupid mistake in his twenties and now it's come to bite me in the hiney. I am realizing that now is a good time to legally get this taken off his record.
