Just a heads up from B.C. Our government has started a Fee Reduction Initiative. Daycare providers are given the choice at this time if they want to opt-in. All parents are eligible to receive this as long as their daycare provider has opted into the program. There will be a list of participating daycares online so Parents can look up if their daycare is accepted. I opted in only because I felt I was being forced to. As it turns out only about 20% have opted in so far.
This initiative was announced publicly before they informed daycare operators. The contract that we were initially given had a deadline of March 27th, about 2 weeks before the deadline. We have been given tidbits of info through teleconferences and emails. It's apparent they don't really have a plan and are making it up as they go along. So in essence we were forced to sign a contract that was amibiguous and confusing.
