There was already some institutional investment in the daycare sector, but operators say interest has grown since the federal government’s $10-a-day child-care plan was announced
amid government investment in the sector, a trend that child-care experts say could cause problems unless strict cost-control measures are introduced.
Busy Bees, one of the biggest child-care chains in the world, is headquartered in Britain and operates in Canada under the name BrightPath Kids. One point of contention with the government child-care program is whether there should be strict controls on for-profit operators – specifically, how much they can charge and what can be deemed reasonable expenses. Ottawa and the provinces are currently negotiating accountability frameworks for such controls.
“When child care is not very constrained by an accountability framework, and when there’s a reasonable amount of public money flowing into it, it becomes more profitable,” said Martha Friendly, the executive director of the Childcare Resource and Research Unit, a Toronto-based think tank.
