    Not sure how other provinces deal with it but here, if reported, Community Services call. They come in, tell you what doing wrong and if over number, they are clear that you have one week to comply. They then call back periodically to check.
    They not let off if rules not know. They educate and expect prompt compliance. I not know if there fines here or not.

    I guess the best thing is to just report her than. I knew of a provider who also had a helper. They had 10 children and she had no idea that what she was doing was illegal. That being said, she was one of the best provider's I had ever known. She was doing it more so to help her cousin (who was her assistant) who needed employment as she had just moved to Canada. Her cousin was wonderful with children and had been a nurse previously. She had lived in Canada previously and spoke clear English, etc. She honestly had no idea, but I felt bad for her because I knew she had the best intentions. When they came to her door, she was shocked and had no idea she was violating the rules. She was great about it and was honest with all the parents about what had happened. Maybe she's the one in a million who truly was not familiar with the rules. It's easy for other people to judge and make assumptions about others. In hindsight, whoever called made a good decision and was obviously looking out for the children, and we have to appreciate that. We can never put children in a spot where they aren't being tended to the way they should be.

    It sounds like you know her and her ways somewhat well. So I guess you know what to do. It's not safe for the children bottom line, especially if they are all toddlers/babies.

A few tips...

Always ensure that your child receives quality care by taking the time to investigate the provider and by asking for references! We simply cannot verify the claims of every daycare provider.
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
