- Who's Watching the Kids? | Originally broadcast Feb 22, 2013
Across Canada, only 20% of kids who need looking after can get into a licensed daycare that has rules for safety and training. Most children go to unlicensed or private daycare....an unregulated industry...where no one's checking up.

My kid was abused at a licensed day care! Just because you have a license, doesn’t make your child safe!
Why have a kid just to bring them to daycare??? 🤦🏼♀️ thats so sad
🕳 to go to work tf? That was the dumbest question
Chyna Haley being a good parent is a full time job. You’re the dumb one.
@@KAYELLEK yeah but not everyone can have a stay at home parent. Some families need 2 incomes to be stable. Are people this dumb?
PurpleGiraffe 96 are people this bad at family planning? Exactly.
I went to a licensed day care in Alma, Arkansas called Kiddie Kollege. They made the children who didn't pay for special instruction, sit in the sun on the ground while a teacher told them how horrible they and their parents were for not paying extra. Once, a baby was hit so hard she had bruises. A child was beaten. Another, my friend Karen, fell down a deep hill, almost a ravine, and when she climbed out a bone was sticking out of her arm. They refused to let her call her mom and said it was just a scratch. She came back the next day in a cast. I was refused the bathroom at seven years old for four hours and I ended up peeing my pants because of it.
Just because you're licensed, doesn't mean you're a good place to go.
Yoshiya 'Joshua' Kiryu #319 WTF?!? Horrifying... So sorry?! How old were you?? Could you go to police? That’s abuse. It’s criminal.
It doesn't matter what state you're in, if it's a licensed daycare or if you're a foster parent/family, you are legally a mandatory reporter, and what they did was wrong and they should've been punished even worse than a typical person because they are "more aware of the law". My family was a licensed foster family and we had an in-home daycare (it was unlicensed) but all of us (not required by all family members to be a foster family) were licensed CPR, First Aid and AED certified. We (unfortunately) had to even report the mother of 3 of the children we took care of. But we would be up at 4 A.M. to receive the children so the mom and dad could go to work. We would walk the mile and a half to their school, and hold their hand on the walk back to make sure they were safe, we made sure they got healthy food to eat, a proper place and toys to play, and proper beds, pillows, blankets, stuffies (usually they brought stuffies with them) to sleep.
Exactly- so true
Good point
@@nintenspiders971 maybe different laws of ages in states? or the parents' situation? lack of learning? who knows.
Who else is glad they didnt go to day cares when they were younger?
I went and it was fine.
I did. I was at a catholic church that had a daycare program. It wasn’t terrible. Could have had nicer teachers though.
I was lucky enough to have a daycare that was licensed and a teacher that went to her classes to keep her license.
Arianna Catch me on the flip side. There’s government funded ones tho
alicmm like my mom would trust that.
My daycare was my grandma’s house along with my other 8 cousins. My childhood was lit af
I love it!!! Same here!!!
Grandma knows best
🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️
Lmaooooo
lizeth guerrero now mcfd and cps would say it’s illegal
The first one looks like a place kiddnapers would hide their kiddos
j wilson i was shocked actually too it looks shocking
Lol I too felt the same :)
Haha True
Shes like a horder
j wilson right 😂😂
Exactly..
I can't sell bottled water without licences.
But I can look after other people's children?
And make a lot more money too apparently
No people allow that.
I agree. Its just sad to consider that adding on more and more requirements that cost $$$ is what makes daycare so expensive. Annual licenses certifications, trainings are $$$.
Even licensed daycare places can be shady. I worked for one. When I saw what was going on, I told and I GOT FIRED!!
Do your homework people!
So true. I know people who have worked in a child care setting and the whole place was a mess and on her first day she was working alone waiting for parents to pick up there kids when she didn't even know who there parents was so she tried to speak to the nursery manager about it and they dismissed her worries like someone else should have been there too anyone could have come to pick them up they had bare safe guarding issues
I feel so sorry for parents who cant stay home with their kids.
Same!!
Seriously. I wish i could stay with my child...
Didn’t have a choice but was lucky enough to have my in-laws watch my boys until they started school. They were great and saved us tons of money! Childcare is SO expensive! Some parents don’t have that option sadly.
We struggled financially and we had to really budget everything but I stayed home with all of mine and we have 5. I always found little ways to make money but I always made sure the little ones were with me. If they're too young to say, "mama somebody hurt me" then I could never leave mine with anybody. I was molested by 2 family members. An uncle on my mama's side and a cousin on my daddy's side. We have one chance to protect our babies. One.
I feel sorry for the kids.
Just call it what it is... Baby sitting..... But When i think of Day Care, I would assume it is licensed and professional , not someones basement ... Just saying...
hi
Ha. I babysat in highschool, being a daycare teacher is quite different. We are not only required to have CPR and first aid training, but also repeated training in child abuse and communicable disease. Add to the the hours of other classes we are required to have each year. Plus, in my state your center has to comply with a quality enhancement program, which requires teachers to write a curriculum based on the early childhood learning standards. Babysitting indeed
Not only that, but when you work at a daycare you become a mandated reporter.
Oof, I know babysitters more qualified than these "daycare" workers. My friend is legit certified in CPR and first aid and she babysits. She doesn't even want to go into an early childhood job. She just babysits for some money and she likes kids.
Yes it's babysitting I would think day care would be more like a class room than your living room
I went to a daycare that wasn't fully official. She was a good caretaker. She had us call her "Auntie (her name)" but the older ones didn't have to if they didn't want to. She had kids of her own that were adults, and sometimes her granddaughter would come over. She had books, movies, toys, and if anyone brought candy or fruit snacks for lunch she would split it with all of us. She let us play outside, and there was often a few babies too. She was a really sweet person.
Sock Cat mine was really sweet too. Most of her kids were adults besides two of them and she would watch after their kids too along with me and my brothers, so we always had someone to play with. She had lots of toys and movies and she made really good homemade chocolate chip cookies all the time for us. We would play outside and go for bike rides to the park and she’d push us on the swings and play games with us. Her youngest son played guitar so we’d listen to him play and he had guitar hero on his PlayStation and he’d let us play it. She even had a crib set up and everything, took care of me since I was a baby and same with my brothers. We’ve become really close with her family we pretty much consider them apart of ours by now. We no longer need her to watch over us because my brothers can look after themselves now and I’m an adult but we still visit and talk from time to time. Crazy how fast time flies though.
Candy for lunch?
My day care was un licensed and I loved her and her husband all there kids grew up and they were retired but so fun we had a schedule we had to follow but we always had ramen noodles for lunch she cooked them soo good even as an adult now I can't make them as good as she did and when I had to start going to a school day care that was licensed the teacher lady made me stay in the class with older kids cause i was nervous and didn't lay down for nap time so she separated me into a class of older kids it was really loud and the older kids scared me and the teacher wouldn't put me back she had to call my mom to get me cause I had a panic art and wanted my old day care back sometimes un licensed places are better it's parents jobs to pick safe places before they have children never rely on other people especially the state to make sure your kid is safe check it out ask around meet the people make sure it's clean and safe
And always trust your gut
Princess Ngozi interesting this was your first thought. Perhaps you should seek some help for your sick mind!
Sad, I feel like all-day care homes should be licensed. And have cameras where parents, can access at any time and check-in on their kids.
Yetta Harris yes! It should be controlled.
Yes. Like a live stream all day that parents can see any time. Plus recorded. I think people would be more careful with other peoples kids if they knew they could be being wstched at any time. I would love to start a home daycare, but I don't have proper space. I babysit occasionally but that is only a kid that is 10 already. She is friend to my daughter and son. I have had her and her brother overnight and brought them to the school bus once. My CPR/ First aid training is expired and i would like to upgrade that. My husband has his so i ferl better when he is around. I would wait until my husband and i get a bigger place, and I have at least updated my CPR/ first aid. I homeschool my kids so it would be challenging. I would need to hire another person and maybe tske 1-3 kids ( maybe older as in school aged for after school needs) After school or weekends us when I babysit most. There really needs to be more licensing though. That way you have proof that they gave CPR/ first aid, and early childhood development etc. Im not saying all home daycares are this horrible or unsafe( i know a few that are deffinately not like this! Plus even licensed daycares have their issues st times, but licensing or some sort if standards need to be in place. All daycares should be registered with the government and regularily inspected without noyice at any time. If your running it right youve got nothing to worry about.
Then be prepared to pay more. 200 a week is 1000 a month. And thats just one child. And 200 a week is cheap.
You know whats amazing is my friends doggie daycare does that. They have plans every day, cameras and post videos on their fb daily of the activities. What a world we live in.
@@ab17364 daycares and nannies offer this but it costs more regardless of if they're upfront about costs cheaper places wouldn't do it. One of the biggest problems about childcare Atleast in the u.s. is how expensive it is. If you live in a city or even a nicer suburban area childcare can easily run 1200+ per month per child. If youre low income it can even make you poorer due to not being able to afford it. And subsidized care often restricts where you can take your kids and that effect when and even where you can work making it even more difficult. Single parenting makes all of this even worse. Business insider did a great video on child care and the costs of it even people making 100k+ can struggle with affording it. Which is why illegal and unlicensed daycares thrive. When you only earn 2000 a month even 40$ a day or 200 a week is expensive. And thats dirt cheap for daycare.
17:20 WHAT is this guys problem???
"I'm very angry..." at the fact that you are exposing an illegal daycare that puts my child's safety at risk.
ARE YOU SERIOUS???!!!???
MarkReactor ! Denial
MarkReactor ! This parent is completely selfish!!!!
Its a cheap daycare. Daycare is expensive and they found a daycare where their child if being cared for and none have had any issues
I was thinking the same thing mark
It's selfishness, he doesn't want to have to go through the trouble of finding another daycare
Thanks mom, for watching my kids and saving me the worry of this nightmare.
Go and hug your mom.

The lumping of "I don't know" with "yes" or "no" is actually misleading.
Tamuno-Opubo Cookey-Gam You’re right, for all we know the majority could of said yes. 😬
If it didn't have the "I don't know" option, then the ENTIRE results would be inaccurate. If an adult does not know the answer to a "yes" or "no" question, I'd rather them have the option of "I don't know", as at least THAT is an honest answer, instead of them just picking yes or no because they have to pick one.
@@nikkib5753 read my comment again Nikki. I don't know is a necessary option but we should have been presented with the individual numbers for yes, no and I don't know.
Even so they lumped just no and idk in one and the totals were still around 1/3rd
I thought so at first but part of the point is that parents dont know who's watching their kids. In that sense it is accurate
When I had to work while my son was preschool age, I payed half what I was making($1500-$2000) to make sure he went to a trustworthy, and safe place. I didn’t care if I didn’t have enough for my personal needs, I will NEVER feel comfortable leaving the my child at a sketchy/untrained environment.
Sad to tell you that even if its licensed, doesnt mean it's more safer than the unlicensed. You just leave it all to God and pray you will get your child back home safe. That's the facts.
Unfortunately not everyone can afford that especially single parents who may only make 2000 a month. Thank God I always have had family to watch my daughter but I have always felt bad for my friends who don't have that option
Thats exactly why i didnt work when my son was small. I would be working TO PAY for daycare. I know thats not an option for everyone and i was very fortunate.
@@ashleyoliva7588 yup.👍
I can tell you right now I have worked at places that charged an insane amount and they were terribly run
At one daycare I was put into, the woman running it abused three children in total, to my knowledge. She was licensed and certified. She beat one child relentlessly with a belt for throwing a toy and ripped the skin from bone on another one. She had her license revoked and she can no longer care for children that aren't her own. Yeah, unlicensed day cares can definitely be dangerous, but licensed ones can be too.
at my public daycare, there was a teenager watching us (I was like 10 or 11) and when naptime came around, she just let everyone in our 6-12 year old room watch Twilight on her laptop. she didn't bring earbuds, but should have
This is true. I had my daughter in a licensed Christian daycare and she tried to perform demonic prayers on some of the kids and left bruises on my daughter. Daycare all over needs to improve because I called the county and photographed her bruises and the county did nothing to correct or stop this treatment.
+APH Prussia teenagers can't run for a day care. It's usually 20- when you retire. It's illegal to run for a daycare if you're a teen
+Kyle Woolridge Grant then why did she say daycare?
At my daycare, the lady held a crying kid up from their hair, sprayed kids with the sink hose, and wouldn't let us come in to use the bathroom when we were playing outside because of kids napping but then yelled at kids who peed their pants.
That's awful! There needs to be a bigger penalty on unlicensed day care and better screening on who is allowed to open one.
Seriously. The story where the parents lost their child was heart breaking.
+Samantha Muniz i know
Suzie i agree like in the us it needs to be licensed
But if they there is only enough room for 20% of children and we increase screening and regulation will more people want want to open a day care?
I think that it's better to have these under-qualified day care centers then children home alone.
StylishBunny I agree I never went to daycare because my older brother fell and was trapped under a plastic bin at the park he had a heat attack and had a broken bone it’s terrible here in the US also
It's super disgusting when children are undervalued. What's wrong with people?
glad I had a loving grandma who watched me as a kid, this is just sad
In Sweden daycares are specialy built houses with large playgrounds and fences around it, all workers are pros, still half price to Canada.
Sweden loves their children. Other western countries don't
Oh no, not this bloody rabbit hole again.
Provocateur Sweden=/=USA/France/Germany
Same as where I live
Not all of them are specially built, some are rebuild regular apartments with no dedicated playgrounds (most of the private sector). I used to live next door to one of them in Barkarby.
It's really not hard to get CPR, and First aid certified. I'm only 14, but still managed to go to the classes. I also attended an entire babysitting class that prepares you for emergencies and how to handle children of all ages. You'd be surprised how many parents are actually more comfortable with a young teenager like myself than an adult. Unlicensed babysitting isn't horrible, it's how the parents themselves go about. I have lunch with every single parent so they can evaluate me before I take on their children. The parents need to take it upon themselves to regulate who is babysitting their children, and the babysitters need to put the children first. I can only handle roughly 3 children, and I won't babysit an infant because I don't feel comfortable doing so even though I'm technically qualified thanks to the classes I attended. I honestly babysit because I enjoy being with children, and during the summer, and on school breaks it's nice. It should never be about the money.
Wow! You are a mature, intelligent young lady. You are more qualified to watch children than those daycares! Good for you. You’re doing the right thing💖
It’s $200 and it only lasts for a year and a half. A lot of people can’t afford that. I don’t babysit kids under 2 because of the expense.
@@user-uc2he9wb2f if you can't afford $200/year, you aren't charging enough.... I'm sure people wouldn't mind paying a bit extra for the assurance of a license.
Personally I don't feel comfortable with any kind of babysitter. Not even family members. I understand not many people have the luxury of not using child care services but I don't think I could leave my child with anyone alone. Too many "creepy uncle" stories. I won't even let my mom babysit. I don't think everyone around me is a child molester, I just vote it's not worth the chance.
Rebecxa Larvav Same. I’m going to take CPR classes to babysit.
@@rachelfreeders356 not even your mom? Dont you trust her? Its nice to be alone sometimes . Me and my grandson. Its good for our relationship.
It doesn't matter if a daycare is licensed or not, abuse and neglect can happen just as easily at a licensed one as it would in an unlicensed one! People need to be careful with who they leave their child in the care of!
It's sad how parents just dump they kids off there seeing damn well the conditions of the "daycare"
I mean they need to go to work. It's not like the probably want to or anything, it's just the last resort.
People only do this when they have no other options please cut it. Nobodies purposely paying money to have someone mistreat their child I promise you that
Are you a mother? Maybe not. I’m a mother and sometimes parents do try their best and that is the only thing maybe can offered. And of course they have to go to work to feed their little once.
I agree Darian. Putting your children in an unsafe environment because it's the best you can afford, is simply put: a cop out. If your finances are truly that strained, DHS will help provide free/discounted child care through LICENSED locations in your state. But I guess some people would rather risk their child's well-being, than admit they took government assistance for their education 🤷🏾♀️
@@yourstruly481 It's not like you have to tell anyone you're using government assistance. The lines are so long for benefits that your kid will probably be school aged by the time there's avaliable resources/space. If not then you need a place to put your kids for the time being until there's avaliable room, so they have to resort to places like this.
Looks like the parents care more about themselves than their kids
You said it. Many parents put more effort into finding an auto mechanic than a quality daycare provider.
This is very concerning however where I live it costs $1400 per month per child for full time daycare; how many medium to low income families can afford this. @ScarlettJewell
That's true :| , sad to say, but it's true. It depends on the parents.
ILhaam Oz, my dad's daycare costs like $400 per child from 7am to 6pm, and it's a discount if it's more than 1 kid in a family there
Manuel Rodriguez ikr
The dad at the end and those people saying they trust those daycares with their kids are the prime examples of people who shouldn't have kids in the first place.
Exactly.
Bingo ,
shouldnt you trust someone who's job is childcare to take care of your child?
@@maxaroni7279 Just because someone runs a daycare, doesn’t mean they should be trusted to take care of multiple children. Most people running these things have no license to do what they’re doing. They have no CPR or first aid training. When I was 13 and wanted to babysit kids guess what I did? I took a quick class and learned CPR and basic first aid in just a few hours. So many daycare providers, including those in the video, haven’t done that for some strange reason.
@@maxaroni7279 Gloria and Sultan are pretty notorious in the area; they're basically both career scammers with no training or education in childcare at all. Just because somebody can get a banner printed for a storefront that has cute rainbow letters on it, doesn't mean they should be running a daycare.
Shame on the parents who find out about this and still send their kids to these places. I understand that childcare (especially affordable childcare) is hard to find but that doesn’t justify any of this.
Shari Kay EXACTLY, thanks for saying what I was thinking!!!
If you understand then why shame them? In fact, what about their situations do you understand that still makes them shameful? I am in no way defending the actions (or inaction) of the parents, but your sentence is quite contradictory.
spicygnomesoup understanding good childcare is difficult to find, but leaving your child in the care of someone who is not properly caring for your child is unacceptable. Sorry, that is not contradictory that’s common sense!
The parents have one of two choices. This, or not going to work, letting bills fall behind and potentially not even having a home or money to feed their kids. When there is no other choice you take the lesser of two evils.
Angela B there is ALWAYS an option to keep your kids safe, ALWAYS. You work at night and your child stays with other parent, you switch childcare with a trusted a friend etc. you can always work something out so the child is safe. I’m not saying safe is always licensed daycare either. There’s also the option of not getting pregnant if you can’t afford to care for your child in a safe manner.
991🤦♀️🤦♀️wtf the children have better chance calling for themselves!!!
Lmao
the first day care is scary
That's why my family always has relatives take care of us
+Sophia herrera Taking care of you shouldn't be a relative's job though. It shouldn't be expected or taken for granted. If your parents chose to have you as a child then they should have been prepared to pay someone to take care of you when they couldn't.
But they would be taking a risk because who is more trustworthy a stranger or a relative? A babysitter might have a good backround but hat doesn't mean she is going to be nice to us.And who said that? They can just get a relative to take care of you, but that doesn't mean they don't love you enough. They love you already so why do you feel the need to pay someone so that they know that they love you? And the relatives don't mind they can just turn down if they want to.It isn't the law to "pay the babysitter to show that your kid knows that you love him"
Yes so true...
+Erika May so judging by your logic, having someone they know and trust take care of the kids is worst then having some stranger in an unlicensed facility take care of them, and it also means the parents don't love them enough.
it's actually smarter to have the child be watched over by a relative then a stranger, because you know them the best. that babysitter you hired to watch over your child, you have NO idea what she/ he's like when your back is turned. also, wouldn't it make more sense to go with a more cheaper option, so you can afford bigger and better things for the family?
Also my mom didn't get a job untell my dad was avalible to stayhome when she was at work.
glad i had my grandmother around to always take care of me. my mom refused to send me to daycares
I would have loved to take care of my grandchildren, but they live 8 hrs away from us. Thank goodness my daughter can work from home not very long, and have the girls with here.
It's sad that parents are made to chose between safe daycare or not being able to work to keep a roof over their heads.
Is it bad that I couldn't stop laughing when the women said call 991 haha and when the little girl stuffed the fruit in her mouth lol
I know right!!
It's perfectly fine. :D lol
+That's so Keira ! when was that?
lillian w Yes..Yes it is...
This makes me cringe, considering I'm a preschool assistant 😬
I know right
I know someone that has a better daycare then this and they have a lot of space for kids to play and have actual cots not mats and the cots have bedding and the playroom has Windows.
+9000k4 clubp wow, that's amazing I wish I went there when I was younger, but I still love my old daycare
:
My mom used to help with the 3month-3year olds at my church and I would help too if I had viewed the Service online,I honestly loved it,but same as you some of the "establishments" made me want to go hug the nearest child. What bad environments
If my kid died at a daycare, the daycare owner better join the witness protection program... because if i lose my kid, destroying you is my only mission left.
This is why I’m a stay home mom until my last goes to school . Thanks for this video
Me too
Me too
I wouldn't send a dog to public schools in my area. Most people around here homeschool.
Why can't the US have shows like this I love this shows
BROTHER DEE TV google day care deaths us and you’ll have plenty of material.
Right!!
@@sarahdee7776 i don't think that's what he meant about the deaths , i think him meant about them secretly investigating people.
Inside edition
There's tons! We also have different laws and may not be able to do the same stuff everywhere
I cried when they showed the photo of kid who died.
I mean I empathize with these parents in a way. Licensed day cares that are really nice, swanky etc are SUPER expensive. Unless you make a solid six figures, it’s very difficult to afford.
Seriously. No working/contributing to society parent should have to dump their child at a place like this.
That parent who was pissed off at the reporters for investigating CLEARLY only cares about their wallet. If i had a child and found out the daycare i was taking my kids to could potentially put them at risk, i would take them out immediately.
I'd looooose it
I work at a daycare and we CAN’T work unless we’re CPR certified. We have to renew it every two years. This video makes me sick. These women running these “daycares” are pathetic and make all of us look bad!
Also, we don’t do it by body count. We have a point system. No adult can have over 12 points alone. Babies 2 and under are worth two points, twos are worth 1.5 points, threes and fours are worth 1 point and five and up are worth 0.5 point.
They do, my daughter goes to a daycare center and the standards are disgustingly different. I’m blessed she is where she is
Just because you're licensed, doesnt mean you could care more than the unlicensed day care with no CPR certificate. Children dies on the licensed day care and staff have all their CPR credential so with this case is to just take care of your own kids,have a plan before having kids. That's what is needed
Should be yearly renewals for CPR. You tend to forget it
Reminds me when I was a kid I went to multiple unlicensed day cares.
feel thankful you're alive
I wonder how many licensed daycare spots could be opened up by defunding CBC and reallocating the money.
pavy415. Same.
My mom was single with 4 kids, a job, and night school. She admits that it was cheaper. She didn’t think about licensing. Her mom watched kids for extra money. Anyone that watched us somehow knew the family, but usually by distant association. Parents of my cousins classmates, neighbors, etc. They came recommended, and trusted. It’s not an excuse, but information wasn’t as easily available when I was a kid. One woman would watch toddlers to teenagers. I remember as many as 10 of us, and really just the older kids watching the younger kids, and the woman watching a few toddlers.
@@kingjames4886 I get it
What kind of parent drops their children off at places like these?! 😱
that’s why most responsible people only have one child. You find out about this stuff the hard way. We felt trapped. We both had to work full time to pay the bills
My mom was a young mother, trying to make ends meet and left me with monsters who took advantage of my age. I was 5 years old in 2004. I still struggle with the trauma til this day. Bless her heart she had no idea.
@@user-mw2eh9is3v I’m so sorry
Imagine being the cause of someone's life ending just because you didn't feel like following the rules. Couldn't be me
I remember going to an uncertified daycare. I was little, like 6 and there were almost 20 other kids. My dad insisted that my mom just leave me there for a few hours. After they fed us hot dogs I ended up throwing up in the yard for "play time". I got sick and they just had me sit and watch TV. They never even called my mom to tell her I was sick and she was PISSED when she found out. She never took me back.
It's good that she never took you back.
Wow what a lovely dad you have
I was at an unlicensed daycare and was treated well. It was just my brother and I with the ladies own kids who were the same age. She did my headlice treatment after school. 🙃
There's more than 5 kids in that daycare? CALL 991!!!!!!!!
IT WAS A JOKE.
I thought it was 0118 999 881 999 119 7253! Damn, I was doing it wrong the whole time.
What is 991?
there are very important regulations in place in terms of how many kids you can have in a space at a time - usually the max amount of toddlers you can have in a room is 12, but you’d need 3 teachers/caregivers. for every 5 toddlers, you need 1 teacher. at least, in america/according to the NAEYC
It blows my mind that a parent sees these "day cares" and sees no windows and tons of junk everywhere and zero CPR or safety training! If something happends to ur kid it's ur fault for allowing them to be there😒
My heart breaks for the parents whose little boy drowned. I hope someone had to go to jail for not supervising that precious child!
I never went to a day care when i was younger my mom had family that would watch us and friends.
same my mom doesn't trust strangers taking care of my younger brother
I went to a catholic kindergarten. It was pretty nice there. My mom only brought me there because she only works in night shifts at the local hospital until 7am and then sleeps 'til 1pm, so i wouldn't be alone and make friends.
+GameRboy ^she is a single parent^
My parents just left me alone...no daycare,nothing
+Unsaid Dead
Same.
If there's something strange in the neighborhood who ya gonna call 991
My heart breaks for that family. The people responsible need to be locked up and never let out
I’m so thankful I’m a stay at home mom. I took my oldest to a licensed daycare for two weeks. He was only a year and a half. He cried the whole time there, nobody comforted him and he sat in his dirty diapers all day long. He never had diaper rash until he went there and his butt was nearly raw. I pulled him out immediately and never put any of my kids back in daycare. I stay home all day and watch them, then work at night while my boyfriend watches them. Exhausting but worth it
sometimes it's impossible or too hard for people to do what we did but i have to say I am so grateful that my wife stayed home to raise our kids rather than sending them to a day care! As a result we don't have a big car or a big house but we have two well raised kids!
Keep going my friend! In the end this is way more important! Good for you!

Glad to hear you did friend as well, hope all goes well with your children and their children, atleast we made the wise investment and it wasn't in the junk of the world.
I use to make 10 or so a month at one point in my life, I've been so much happier a poor man, you didn't miss anything I promise.
Nice to read this, we are doing the same with ours no amount of money can replace a child's safety, I watch my kids and my husband works and they are well behaved, respectful and generally happy healthy kids 🙂
this isn't daycare, its long term baby sitting. are they going to complain about my baby sitter that lived down the road who was 16 at the time who made dinner and watched us who made like 2 bucks an hour? (btw this was early 2000's so thats the reason)
babysitting and daycare is different. daycare is looking after multiple kids from different families. babysitting is usually a "babysitter" going to the persons house to watch the kids.
Bad stuff happens in America too. Too many in Atlanta are run by street people hired-without background check-only because the business isn't allowed to turn them down due to race or religion. A well-groomed black lady with an early childhood degree was turned down in favour of a Burka-draped lady with barely a high school ed. with an unpleasant personality and body odour. Months later, she was fired for letting kids play w/o supervision in the outside parking lot and theft. She also hit a child.
You think it's safe for untrained children to look after other children?
My heart breaks for the parents that lost their son.....GOD BLESS ALL OF OUR CHILDREN.....unfucking believable
I thought this would have been one of the most HIGHLY regulated sectors!
If you don't have the means to take proper care of your kids then why are you having kids?
+Katnipkitkat (Cthülhu Kthûl'hu) Why do some low-income people spend half of their income on car payments? Idiocracy at the finest
+Diego Lee Because they don't know priorities.
My ex wife took my child to a similar shithole,
My 8 months daughter came back with a slap on her face, next day I got my daughter out of the daycare and was merciful enough to do not report her.
A year later through my divorce process, the dayhome provider shows up with my ex in court to provoke me in front of the judge, she tells me here I am you can t do anything, showed her my daughter s slap and she bursted out laughing.
It was my mistake to do not report her on the instant
In short, don t let these people go away safely after their deeds.
ouaies90 Merciful? I'm sure the other abused children & their parents are grateful for your mercy. You had a moral responsibility to report that day care. You did no one, except the abuser any favors.
By not reporting, you let other children be beaten and abused. You're helping her abuse when you don't report.
U didnt report it!? Tf is wrong with you
I can remember being in daycare when I was 3-4 years old. My friend and I would hide in those big tires when we would go out to play and we would stay there when all the kids went back inside. They never missed us.
When I worked in a childcare center, big rules were head counts and sweeps of the entire playground and bathrooms before going inside! Always count, even more so on field trips
@@nikkij3254 that's the way it should be. I can remember many days like that. My friend and I would hide so thst we didnt have to go inside and take a nap. They never missed us.
@I like beans thats why I've never left my kids with anyone lol
I am watching my own baby..good Lord these day cares are horrendous.
If I were a mom just walking up to these places, I would turn around and leave! They just look horrible and unsafe from the front door...
I wish the US had a news station like this.
I only went to daycare once as a child and hated it. There’s were so many kids and I was very shy...but I was so thirsty. I wanted to ask for a drink but there was too many kids around and no one payed much attention to me because I was quiet.
After I was married, people constantly asked when we were going to start a family, I always replied with , " when it's the right time". I was a preschool teacher and still wouldn't bring my own child into the day-care. At 30 years old, I had our first child and I stay home with my children all because I waited. I waited until we were financially able to provide and be the best parents we could be. Staying home makes sense because childcare is so expensive, you're basically working just to pay the day-care. Most importantly, you're watching your own children and keeping them safe and spending time with them that you'd never get back. We make plans for everything in our lives, our education, trips, marriage, ect why do people have kids without planning first? There are some life circumstances you can't plan around such as illness or loss, but having kids when you're not financially stable and have no one to watch them is just irresponsible.
"call 991"😂😂
Different areas have different numbers.

I went to a licensed day care when I was a child. One day I threw out my half eaten apple in the garbage and I was dragged by my ear over to the garbage and had to eat it out of the trash 🙂
Wtf?
The smiley emoji makes this worse
Nasty Rex it’s more of a sarcastic smiley emoji
@@chanellegrant683 oh I know. It was a good way to make your point
there are people who couldn't afford apples and you tried to waste half of it ;)
I took the CPR training and first aid class here in the US and it literally took only a day and was inexpensive! They make more than enough to afford that class!
I just completed mine a couple weeks ago and it cost $75 and was a four and a half hour class
These people have to be stopped!!!!! THIS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL!!!!!!
Ikr
It is illegal
Yes!! That NEEDS to be illegal!! That's really dangerous!!
Looks like the CBC salespitch for the monopoly product of "Government Licensing" has worked it's magic on at least one weak-minded individual...
it is illegal in America u need a valid permit
I would never in my life leave my son at a "daycare." What the fuck is wrong with people....
Toxic Kitty They have jobs?
Preschool. Takes them as young as 6wks old.
+Toxic Kitty some people can't afford that
Its free
I'm concerned about my children's safety in daycare as well
I'm totally against it
When the person that’s gonna be responsible for your childs safety says they’ll call 991 should prob be a pass.
When I was a child my mom took me to this unlicensed daycare run by a women alone. She treated us like dogs, yelling at us when our mothers leave, hitting us, I still have nightmares of the daycare.
Omg.
I don't go to a dare care my parents find someone we know that is responsible
Katelin Hi same
But they let you have a youtube acct.. Nice
So you have minimal interaction with kids of your age.
Katelin Hi same here
When i was young I was in a daycare and a woman just screamed almost all the time
My children were abused in 3 licensed daycares. When reported I was told they all had complaints but never charged due to no evidence. I felt guilty and sick to my stomachs that they were neglected.
I was in an unlicensed daycare and I turned out fine. The lady did my headlice treatment 🤣
Remains one of the best episodes of Marketplace.
I work at a daycare and this is absolutely disgusting to me. I would never look after a child without having at least first aid training.
Some stay at home parents ignore kids too...and wish there cameres required at all daycares license or not
An unlicensed daycare ruined the better parts of my childhood stemming to adulthood.
Only recently was it finally forced to close. After being hit by a vehicle. Karma.
I had a daycare at someone's home which was actually lovely, it was big, spacious, it all was in the basement, and since I stayed till I got a bit old for daycare I was just left to play with her two children, it was actually a really professional daycare
This is just crazy! Neither of my boys ever been to a daycare. And never will! Can’t trust nothing and nobody!
This makes me so grateful for my wonderful mother in law when my husband and I have babies.
you think Licenced ones are better? I worked at one where the workers grabbed the kids faces and left marks. Only one worker per room was required to know firstaid and CPR and if that worker was gone and kid choked... I would not be legally able to help. When the kids had Roda virus they didnt tell parents there was an outbreak almost 20 kids sent home everyday and we were told to tell the parents we didnt know what was wrong even tho I knew it was wrong to lie to the parents
Licensed ones ARE much better. That one you described would be shut down in minutes in my state. Maybe you live in one of those states where the people have "taken back their state" from government oversight? Whenever someone got sick at our daughter's daycare, a letter from the nurse went home to every parent in the school. And every teacher - all of them - were certified to use CPR, AEDs, etc., because they were actually paid a decent wage.
Not all of them are bad. The one I worked at was, im from MI the owner of the daycare met minimum requirements and we were paid minimum wage.
That is sickening. Listen, I’m not sure how old you are but always do the right thing, even when it’s hard. Be honest & responsible. That will get you far in life. If not this life, definitely the next!
If you worked there and didn't report them to lisencing, you're part of the problem 🤷🏼♀️

Terrible parent of the year award. Your kid isn’t in a safe situation and your upset at the people who exposed it?
The poll questions give very little information when “I don’t know” is lumped into the percent. Smh.
In America, there's plenty of daycare- if you're a millionaire. When i was young, my parents were quoted, at the cheapest, almost $10,000 a year, a few days a week. Or, you can get Susan next store to do it 5 dollars an hour. It's ridiculous. Most daycares, kids have to pass tests, or they're not allowed
RedTeamWolf I think you meant "next door," anyway $5 an hour 40 hours a week is 10 grand.
RedTeamWolf A quality daycare isn't cheap. Ratios in centers at best for infants are 1 adult to 3 children or sometimes 1 adult to 4 children (and I'm talking less than 2 years of age). This is for safety. The US also allows home day care to become licensed as long as they meet certain standards - which aren't difficult - covers on outlets, a play area, eating area standards, etc.
That's the problem with the US. They have to make everything cost money. You should make it more like the Scandinavian contrives where there is free healt care, childcare, schools and so much more
Benjamin Tomassen Nordahl
Nothing is ever "free," you either pay directly or indirectly via taxes.
*****
I'm not for anyone paying my way, rich or poor. I make my own way, and would be ashamed if I had to rely on the government strongarming someone else to subsidize me. The poor on average, are poor because of shitty choices. They choose to not work or not get an education, pop out 50 kids, or smoke cigarettes at $8 bucks a pack and rent furniture and have cell phones, etc. Those that are truly disabled or sick, that's a different story. There's already plenty of money to go around for them out of the taxes that are already being paid.
Instead of appreciating your exposure of who is "watching" their children, there is a typical denial by parents who put their own egotistical i-know-what-i'm-doing attitude ahead of the safety and well-being of their children. Even with proof, they deny. I always thought the parents of this day and age were smarter parents, and people, than of my days. Boy oh boy, was I wrong. smdh
Wow! I checked out 21 day cares before I found one I trusted with my son. He just turned 2 at the time. In 4 days after being in day care he was potty trained. He loved his daycare friends and workers. To this day, the person who was the daycare manager is friends with my son and with me on face book. She still is part of our circle of friends. I so appreciate those workers that helped me raise my son. He was in that daycare till he entered grade one and had to go to a school farther away. I was fortunate to find a community school with child care for him. He was there from grade 1 and two until we moved out of the city. Watching this....I realize how blessed we were....check day cares out really good and do your research. It's worth it. I'd never put my child in an unlicensed day care.
All daycares here in US have to be licensed and there is a ratio needed for kids to adults,
No but most are. But states numbers adult to kids ratio. 1 to 11 for 2 yrs old is crazy.
You think. So many people do not follow that
Who you gonna call?

Ghostbusters! 👻🚫
Better chance of them coming through to rescue these babies
My brother is in an unlicensed daycare. The only reason he is is because the lady who runs it is a close family friend. We know she is safe and has first aid certificate. She is very trustworthy. She tells my mum every morning what she has planned for the day and asks my brother what he would like to do along with the other 2 kids that go there. She tells my mum when she picks him up how he was and gets him to grab his drink bottle and bag. They sing and dance, play outside on the swings and bikes. If it is warm they will get in the pool. My brother really likes it there. She takes them to duck ponds if it is ok with the kids and their parents.
you can have up to 5 kids in an unlicencsed daycare. If you have the proper credentials. Also the more adults you have the more kids you can have I think which they didn't touch on. I think if there is 2 adults you can have more than 5 kids.(I heard that somewhere else). All that you mention is the proper way to do things and kuddos to that women then. But this is for people who are doing it wrong.
+Krystal Decker yes I know. I just like pointing out that not all unlicensed day cares are bad. I think it would've been nice for them to sort of put in that a lot of unlicensed daycares are good, you just have to check first.
that's nice! atleast there are some daycares that are safe
Krystal Decker, that is not the case for most of Canada - 1 adult, 5 kids, period in a licensed home daycare. In Ontario, providers are only allowed to care for 2 children if they are both under the age of 2.
Onnie, that would give parents the very false notion that if they ask a few questions, their child will be safe. As a former ECE with 20 years experience, no parent can ever truly know what happens when they are not there, no matter how "good" the space or provider may seem.
Man my day care was my grandma and the Missouri back woods
Was blessed to have been able to stay home and care for my 3 babies.

+Mr King oh well sorry I got out of control and stuff......
It's a Porsche.
That sad part about this is that you only showed the "bad" unlicensed daycares. Not all unlicensed daycares are bad and if people are sending their kids to these places it's up to them to check with the care workers and see what they are certified for and what they are not certified for.
the whole point of an expose is to show what people dont realize or whats going on. They didn't say unlicensed are all bad just that they don't have proper training or proper safety procedures...
This is the slight bias I see in these "marketplace" videos. They show the worst of the worst. I'm not saying it's bad, it's just that if people are not really thinking about what they hear, they are convinced it's "this way and the only way" things are done
Nessie ! They don't need to shed light on people doing what they're sposed to. They are trying to show that the majority of parents assume that all daycares have to fallow much more strict set of rules than they really have to.
Melinda Greer how I see it is there's a spectrum. The white "good area" and the black "bad area" such as these cases. Im just saying I wish they showed the "grey area" where some are legal but borderline not which is also sketchy and a reality. I hope this clears it up? :)
I don't know if I would send my child to a unlicensed daycare period. It's not safe.
I am a nanny for a long time family friend and watch their two kids, aged 8 and 9. For families who can’t stay at home or leave their kids with family, I think it is the best option. I’ve been with them for over 5 years and know those kids like the back of my hand. They love having me over and I absolutely love keeping them!
My mom ran a daycare. I remember she treated every child there as if they were her own. It’s hard to imagine someone not doing that.
if I was an unlicenced day care runner I would not keep the kids in a basement and if my house was a mess I would clean it every day after all the kids leave and I would take them out more during the winter because it's bad for the health when u stay in a house all day
Rainbow Cookie that’s because these people don’t think straight
if the parents didn't care about their kids they wouldnt risk leaving them with perfect strangers in general so they can afford to provide for their children. most parents dont have a choice because their is no space and not enough liscenced daycares to care for our children
mica Lynk They have to work to earn money. There is no other place to put their kids especially if there are no relatives around.
I am a widow with no family. You are very ignorant
@@dancingbears539 How are they ignorant when their point was in SUPPORT of situations like yours?
You should probably re-read the original post!
It's for this exact reason that my sister went to work for the daycare her kids ended up attending, instead of working elsewhere.
Every parent that brings their kid there, SEES for themselves how awful it is, and still goes, are evil
