    I agree with Judy, if you start this when do you stop? I let the parents know that I need to supplement the family income, if I did not I would not charge at all. My family relies on my income.
    In BC we have a subsidy system and if you are not able to afford daycare the Provincial government will help. All you need to do is make a phone call, go in for an interview and you will get a percentage of your daycare fees paid for. I charge the parent for anything shortage in the subsidy paid to me.
    Have the parent call to find out any information from the provincial government.

    In Ontario we have subsidy too, but it is a 3 year waitlist in our area, all regions are different but I don't think there are any regions that do not have a wait list... unless you are in a dangerous situation, that is a long time, for a single Mom to foot the bill herself... especially since "we girls" just don't seem to have the same high paying employment many of the "dads" do sound as though the BC programme is better
