Hi Ladies,
I will be opening a home daycare in about a month, I am located in Ontario. I have been in contact with my local agency and am playing the waiting game but haven't even had an interview yet. I am becoming increasingly anxious. My maternity leave ends August 7th. It seems like there is a lot of red tape to get through to Register for example; interview, background check, fire department inspection and a business license would still be required to Register.

At this point should I just go ahead and do an unregistered daycare?
If I do unregistered should I get a background check and business license?
I'm worried about waiting too long for the agency....
Any advice would be great
TIA
