Would it be the same process as if I used my own name or is it differant at all? Also if I have a business name and use my bin number would I have to open a business bank account? And can independent childcare providers use the word daycare in their business name? I'm located in Ontario if that helps.
Here you have, more inf. To include in your contract.



"An unlicensed provider must inform parents that they are unlicensed in writing (either hard-copy or electronic). A provider must keep proof of their disclosure for two years. The disclosure must say: “This child care program is not licensed by the Government of Ontario.”

All providers, both licensed and unlicensed, are required to provide receipts for payment of services upon request.

With specific exceptions, all providers, both licensed and unlicensed, are required to allow parental access to the premises and their child.

An unlicensed provider cannot operate in more than one location."...
