Childcares and Unions - Good idea or not?

This is a topic that I'll have to turn over to the experts, the childcare providers, to see what they think. But recently I am hearing more and more about childcare providers joining unions. I remember a couple years ago, I spoke with several providers who were completely against the concept. But now I wonder if that is still the case.

I understand that the state of Maine is currently making the switch to unionizing the childcare providers. After doing a quick online search, it appears that California and Pennsylvania are also unionizing.

So providers, what do you think? Is your state trying to form a union? If so, are you planning on joining? Why, or why not?

Just curious.....
