    Who would you believe.??

    The new FQA sheet is out about all the new rules of Bill 10 and one of the new ones is all children on premises count.....so parents at drop off and pick ups with a younger or older sibling count for those few minutes, play dates where the parents stays counts, etc. BUT.....Who would do you believe? I've called the ministry (Inreguards to home play dates) four different times.Different days, different person each time. My caregiver friend did the same.And we have both got the same answer every single time......if the child's parents stays those children do not count. !?!?

    Q. If other children are present in the home accompanied by their OWN parent ( providers child’s friend visiting if parent stays, family member visiting with their child, parent and child coming for an interview, etc.) do those children count in the providers numbers?
    A. Yes. All children on the premises count in your numbers.

    I thought this was a no because their parent is supervising and is in no way a part of your daycare. What next...please leave yor Childs sibling in the car when dropping off and picking up because it puts me over ratio....what a crock!!

    I'm sorry....I agree bright sparks...this is utter nonsense....I will probably ALWAYS at one time or another be having a parent pick up their younger child in the evening...and bringing along their older child who is no longer with me because they are in school...I WILL NOT BE ASKING THEM TO KEEP THEM IN THE CAR UNATTENDED....THIS IS B.S.

    Same here too.

    Children of house guest count. Own children's play dates after school or in summer count. And so do client interview children. This why I schedule interview for immediately after day care or in nap if not all children in that day.

    I know. Ppl are outraged because even the child in the car is left in your driveway which is on your premises so,they count. So petty so stupid. But yet when I called muliptal times I was told it was ok. I just do not know whose word to take to not risk a fine!!

    Why are they doing that? I don't see why that even matters. They are just coming out with outrageous rule they can fine more people that's just ridiculous! I still don't understand how they plan on finding these daycares that are private that don't follow the bill 10 or even numbers makes no sense to me
