Hi JoyShop...in short, if you are an independent provider ( not with an agency), the Bill proposes changing the ratios to 5 children under 13, with only 2 under 2 and you count your own children under 6. While this may seem fair to some on the surface, and the Ministry says it is in the name of 'safety and accessibility", it is going to make running a home daycare NOT viable, financially. The flip side is that an AGENCY provider will be allowed 6 children with the same ratios and will be allowed to partner with another agency provider to have up to 12 children between them. There will also be a Ministry appointed Director who will have the power to WAIVE the 2 under 2 for an agency provider. The reason we are so opposed is because of the blatant disregard for, and bias against, the Independent providers who care for up to 80% of children currently in care in Ontario. That's the short, nutshell version..please feel free to ask any other questions! thanks for asking!
