Private caregivers do NOT have to count their own children in their total number of allowed daycare children, which is 5. You can have 5 children not including your own under care at one time, up to the age of 10, after which they don't count. There are no other restrictions on the ages you can have.
Just to clarify..If a carer's own children do not count and children over the age of 10 do not count, then theoretically, an Ontario carer can have unlimited children as long as they are her own and client children over age 10?
If you visited or if you're using a childcare provider found on DaycareBear, do not hesitate to leave a review. This will most certainly help other parents!
