It basically says that all home daycares will be forced to join an agency! If that is the case I will close. So annoyed that I have put more than 20 years into my business, and now my hard work and education is going to waste! I don't think I could ever go back to working in a centre!!!

I can't work in a centre either. I mean, I COULD do it, but wouldn't be able to support myself or my kids. I had a look earlier today to see if wages for daycare workers has improved at all since I graduated ECE in 1994. Nope. Downtown Toronto is highest paid at $16.41 (something like that) per hour. Most providers make a whopping $20, 000/ year. Wow.....I mean, really Ontario....thank you soooooo very much for putting such value on our children as to pay those of us willign to take care of them at poverty level. Yep.....I see a big commitment to the wellbeing of children there. I don't know why I bothered to go to school for this. It's absolute crap.
