We started our son at a new daycare center because we moved our place of residence. We chose this day care center because they offered transportation to and back from Kindergarten. Now two weeks before school is to start they said they are not going to our school because there was only 5 kids that would go there from that daycare. They offered a different center that they own that will go there, but it is about 5 miles out of the way for us.

Can they be held liable for the transportation promise from the day care where he is currently enrolled? We may have to change to a different care center altogether that is closer to home than the other office that they offered.

If they cannot be held to their agreement, then I will try to get them to pay for the registration at the other day care.
 
IMHO from the basic facts, if this company owns two day care centers, why would you need to pay registration fees for the second day care center? It would seem that you registered once. Regardless of whether there was an actual contract for the transportation component, it is possible that your situation might be one of "detrimental reliance" -- you were induced to register at the first day care center, relying on the promise made to you of transportation to the center which was to your detriment. The result would be how much it cost you at day care center one.

I'm not sure what else you are looking for when you are asking whether they can be "held liable" beyond what is discussed above.
