Maybe it's just me but I view my home as my home after daycare hours. During work hours, it is my business and therefore it opens me, my fiance (he's here during the day) and our home up to my clients and their questions and concerns. If I didn't want that than I should not have opened my doors and I should have stayed working in a centre IMO. Of course it is still my home during work hours but there is also a grey area and I don't fault the parents for asking nor am I offended. I try to put myself in their shoes and I would likely ask the same. I agree with the poster who said that not agreeing to this would raise a red flag. It is entirely up to each provider to decline and I think that is fine but just be aware that it would look suspicious to some families and may turn some away.

In daycare centres, every staff member is required to have a clean check done so asking to see one would be pointless because they wouldn't be working there if they didn't have a clean one. A parent could probably ask to see it though. Many people who do not have clean checks live with their children Dodge.
