I would argue that you signed up with her because she was licensed and under the impression that she was running her daycare legally. That you enrolled your child under the guise the the provider would be watching your children, not someone else much less someone that isn't approved as a substitute. I would emphasize that the provider was operating against licensing regulations.

I'm in CA and in my state this would be a type A violation with the possibility of having her license suspended and/or revoked.

EDITED to add: Ask about CPR certifications also, leaving an adult that didn't have certifications would be a separate violation on top of having a non background checked person watching the kids. Here that would be another Type A (worse you can get)
