    I am not to sure I even called a lawyer and they don't know how much of this is valid I don't really know. This same family wanted a receipt from me and I told them my accountant does them in Feb and they knew this already and told me this I didn't give them a recipt they would call the ministry of consumer services!

    I gave them a receipt and now they are doing this because APPERENTLY the clause in my contract "In the case that a child is not properly adjusting to daycare within a 3 week timeframe, the provider may terminate the contract and retain the full deposit" is not accordance with the consumer protection act and that they were advised that its unethical for a service provider to terminate their services and retain payments for services not rendered. This is why I am confused! When I called the Ministry of Consumer Services they said there is no rules for deposit or refunds but she worded it as PAYMENTS it wasn't a payment I am not giving back it is the deposit.

    She already threatened me with the ministry of consumer services over a receipt because she needed it now?

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.
