Original CTV Calgary story Dec 14 2006

Police search for former day home owner

POSTED AT 6:05 PM Thursday, December 14

Calgary police are looking for a woman who ran a day home in Southwest Calgary.

CTV first learned about Rosalie Maronese this past summer when angry parents and former day home employees said Maronese didn’t pay them what they were owed.

There weren’t any criminal charged in that case, but now police want her for something else.

Calgary police have an arrest warrant for a separate incident.

Officers tells CTV that she responded to two ads placed by Calgarians, each seeking a pair of season tickets to the Calgary Flames.

Police say she took 8000 dollars from one, $4000 from the other and sent them to the Saddledome to pick up their tickets.

However, when the unsuspecting victims went to claim their tickets they were told the tickets didn’t exist and that Maronese did not own any season passes.

Now, she is wanted for two counts of fraud.

In January, an employment agency operated by Maronese called “That Recruitment Company” pleaded guilty to operating without a license and direct selling without a licence.

Police believe Maronese has left her home in Cougar Ridge where angry parents and ex-dayhome employees picketed this summer to recover money they said she owed them.

Gord Southam gave Maronese a $3600 deposit to hold two spots for his kids in a daycare she never in fact owned.

He says he sued her and won in small claims court, but never collected.

And though it’s not for her daycare dealings, Southam says he’s glad the police are planning to charge Maronese with something.

New post from London Ontario

Another victim from Ontario posting of Rosalie Maronese's activities in London.

Rose Maronese really left an impression in London, Ontario as well. As one of her victims here, let me tell you what she has been up to. She came here with this idea of a company called girls night out tours. The idea is great I think but it's who runs it that is the problem. She organizes a group of ladies to get picked up by a limo and it takes them out on a night on the town. There are several stops along the way with different vendors. After running these tours for 3 weeks, we soon realized who we were dealing with when the vendors were complaining about not getting paid. Myself included, acted as host to these tours and learned first hand what a scam artist she was by lying to me and others involved in this company. She has gone on to write several rubber cheques and makes it sound like it is the banks fault. I hated playing phone tag with her trying to get my money. And on top of that, she was looking for ads for this ad book called "The Little Redbook" which she said would be given to every lady who went on a tour plus run in the city newspaper in January. I even helped get her 2 ads from friends of mine. The London Police have a file number I found out based on this scam. Apparently there are other businesses who have paid for an ad and seen nothing. i came across this blog from someone close to Rose and immediately felt sick to my stomach. I can't believe that after reading all that she has done in her past that she continues to scam people. From the beginning she always said that her ex boyfriend was the cause for her problems and that he tried to ruion her in Calagary and he is making her look bad. She is such a liar and i have drawn together a group in London that have been "touched" by her to file a case in small claims court to get our money back. She messed with the wrong people. We will make sure she does not do business in our city anymore!

Rosalie and the TarotCard Reader Part II

Amazing what you find

When Rosie left Calgary she left some things behind. It took awhile but we have posted Rosie's conversation with the Thunderbay tarot card reader. We don't know when or where it was recorded. Enjoy!! We will see you in December Rosalie!

Rosalie Maronese Tax Time

So with tax time around the corner how should we all deal with the money that we gave Rosalie for services? We think you should claim them!!

This may prompt an audit by CRA given the fact that she is taking deposits and in many cases not providing receipts or refunds.

From the CRA website.

Once again Beware Rosalie Maronese, Maronese International, Auntie Rosie's Dayhome, Aunty Rosie's Dayhome do not forward monies!!!

House Cleaning

Does anyone reading the blog have information on Rosalie Maronese's house cleaning business? Most of the posts here are in regards to the dayhome problems but information on the domestic engineering side would help as well.

Please post your comments.

Again Beware Rosalie Maronese, Maronese International, Auntie Rosie's Dayhome, Aunty Rosalie's Dayhome. DO NOT FORWARD MONIES!!

Where is Rosalie?

Does anyone reading the blog know where Rosalie has moved to? Her address in Cougarstone is occupied by a young woman who doesn't know of a forwarding address. Please feel free to leave a comment and directions to her new location or phone number!!

She is running again. Not paying the people she has taken money from. Once again beware Rosalie Maronese, Maronese International, Aunty Rosie's Dayhome, Auntie Rosalie's Dayhome. DO NOT FORWARD MONIES!!

Aunty Rosalie' s Dayhome Documents

Just wondering if everyone of Rosalie's victims received the same information package?

Another Victim....

Don't know who this is but if anyone has information we could put them in touch with Trevor.


Hi Everyone out there,

Just thought I would try to see if I could find out how may others are out there that have been scammed by "Aunty Rosalie's Dayhome".

I don't quite understand how someone can live with themselves everyday when they use innocent children as pawns in her sick scheme to extort money from people.

My husband and I were stupid enough to fall victim to her dayhome scam. I am sure others have been in our situation where you are searching and searching for childcare and you feel like you will never find one. And then comes along good old Rosalie. She seems like the nicest person, and a great dayhome. That is untill you have given her your money and she closes up shop two weeks later.

We heard every excuse from this woman. Lost her cell phone, "Tell me you got the messages I left for you she says". Is a No Show for the scheduled playdates which she said had to take place. Again says left us messages. Gives us another phone number only to disconnect it days later. Several trips to her house and discussions with her "roommates"? We discover she is out of town??? Then when we finally talk to her she says her uncle had a heart attack! Yeah I'm sure And then no contact for weeks. We leave a letter wishing to cancel the service she obviously does not run hoping we might actually get our money back. Hah thats a pipe dream

And then to top it off, she actually contacts us TWICE ??? to tell us she got our letter wishing to cancel our contract and she wants to return our deposit. Only then to not call again when she promises. And then for a third time the sick twisted individual calls again and says we can pick up a check at her house in Cougar Ridge from her roommates or we can wait untill shes back in town on the 29th. So my husband goes to get the check from the room mate the other day and low and behold who answers the door ROSALIE! ( Thought she was out of town?) She tries to act all nice and says she can't find the check she wrote but she would just write another one. Can anyone say BOING BOING BOING all the way to the bank. We went to try and cash it today and as we suspected NSF!! Oh and the address on the check is actually a PO box at Westhills UPS store.

We will now be going to file our official report with the police and hope that others would also do the same so that we might actually be able to have this bitch locked up! She's lucky it was my husband that came by that day because if it was me I would have dragged her out of the house by her hair all the way to the bank to get the cash and a good old shit kicking

Roslie if you read this I'm sure you figure out who I am and I mean it when I say if you fail to return our money you will pay one way or another! I know to many people in this city for you to hide! posted by Bikeguide1 @ 8:57 PM

Rosalie History

Mirna McHattie has left a new comment on your post "Rosie Moving?":



I am another victim of this woman's fraud. We paid her $3500US in the summer of 2002 to have a cousin of mine come from El Salvador to Calgary to look after our son. The services were never given nor the money returned even after numerous promises from her saying she would return the money said. The insensitiveness of this woman has caused us a lot of stress not only to myself and husband but to my relative back in El Salvador. We regret not having gone to Consumer Watch Show for help then, but hope that is still time to see some justice. She used a Nanny's Association in California to gain credibility for some time called the INA with which we were in contact regarding Maronese International Inc. My stomach turns every time I think of her.
