It's Baaaack......yippee.

Ugh, can anyone help me out? I posted info about the Bill in a few facebook groups for moms, and have now been attacked by a provider who is insisting that the age restrictions have always been there for independent providers. Obviously this is not true, but I don't want to get into a petty spat over facebook. I have sent her links to the day nurseries act online, and whatisbill143.weebly .com, which I think lays it out very clearly. Any other "official" source I can use? I feel like this is the exact reason the government is able to push this as far and as easily as they are - SO many people just don't know the current laws and think we are running illegal daycares already.

That should be quite sufficient and you likely aren't going to be able to produce enough evidence to convince this person otherwise. Why not try the opposite approach and ask them to back up their claims and that way you will be able to clearly identify where they have got their facts wrong and hopefully they will back off. Sorry you have crossed paths with this person.

This is from the Ministry of Education web page. Read at the paragragh below the pictures. It shows the only restrictions for informal (independent) daycare:

I've run into the same issue on FB with an otherwise intelligent well informed friend. He suggested that I consult my lawyer when I told him I wasn't licensed. Not licensed =/= illegal.
