Curious about contracts

[Suzie_Homemaker]

Quebec child care is very different than rest of country. I don't pretend to know much about how it works other than it's $7.something a day and it's driven by legislation no one else has, as it costs so much money to the government that tax payers in other provinces are supporting it via the federal tax dollars.

There are standard rules in other provinces but no two provinces are same.

Basically (and it's not the same everywhere) we can be registered/agency approved home or we can be unregistered/independant/private home - terminology changes too which makes complicate.

Depending on if agency involvement, we have limits to numbers of kids we can have. Sometimes it's the same ratios registered or not, some provinces have more/less for agency registered homes than if not part of an agency.

Some agencies charge in their provinces, some don't.

We are self employed so we have our own contracts, hours of business, and policies and as long as we follow the regulations for our provinces, and as long as we don't clash with our agency needs/rules then we are on our own.

Standard practices like vacation, leave, hours, seem to change by area and depend on what the local people will allow.
