The NDP is promising $15 a day child care to parent over period of years nationally. I speak to my NDP representative early this morning for better understanding of what it mean and where funding come from.
He very unclear about much of it but going to find out.
He said "Mr McNeil has not committed to providing this yet. 6 province say they are interesting in looking at proposal and 4 not responded either way. Like Health Care, it will be administered at provincial level despite being National scheme. It will mirror Quebec system except it being $15 a day not Quebec rate which lower."
I know this for regulated daycare places.
I trying understand what restriction on regulated dayhome in Quebec. I think someone said not allowed to have notice period in contract. I think parent in Quebec say they not allowed choose carer and must go where space is told.
Is daycare fee in regulated care capped at set fee?
What happen when cost of supplies increase and need to up fees?
Who pay for difference in fees less parent contribution at set amount?
How long before government paid part of fees get given to provider? In advance? In arrears?
How many children can regulated provider have?
Do own count in those numbers? Until what age?
What happen in private (unregulated) day home in Quebec?
Is unregulated dayhome allowed?
Do parent pay all bill?
Do they get refund from government so all parent only pay $7.40 even in private dayhome?
Is number of children/ratio same?
Hoping someone here in Quebec can explain because I not understand and so hard to know what my MP mean when he say it will mirror Quebec system.
Thank you
