To Whom it may concern;

I am an independent home childcare provider in Ontario with 5 invaluable daycare spots within my community. I am discouraged and frustrated with the announcement by the Ontario Liberals on June 6 2017 pledging $1.6 billion dollars into 45000 new childcare spaces.

I would like to see the government support the most popular, diverse, and inexpensive form of childcare in our province, independent childcare, rather than putting valuable tax payer money into a system we already know is broken. I want to see the government license independent childcare providers, and utlilize existing spaces that are self-sustaining and accessible, instead of sinking money into a system that doesn’t recognise these gems within our communities. We need to license independent providers, who open our homes and our hearts to providing quality care to children in a family environment, without having them sacrifice our autonomy and entrepreneurship.

I hope I can count on you to advocate for your constituents.

Thank you for your time,
