Actually sounds almost like someone interested in opening a daycare themselves and potentially looking to steal info - contract, diploma, police check, etc. While distracted maybe dad would be taking pictures of the set up - say this because I had a family do this exact thing or at least attempt to. I now refuse to interview if the child is not present. I am interested in how the child interacts with me and the parents as part of my decision. If they show up at the door without child I send them away to rebook. Not interested in dealing with multiple visits. It is odd for them to ask to be "separated" as it was to show the dad the place too so he can read the forms at home and he should have been part of the tour. I see lots of red flags in this. Not sure I would get paranoid about undercover as far as the ministry goes but for sure there are parents looking for info to start their own daycare that operate this way. I would prefer they just be upfront and I will talk to them and mentor them if they just ask.
