Mother objects to the daycare because of what? It's a different religious denomination than she prefers? The sponsoring church is different from that in which the parents previously agreed to raise the child? Something else?

There has never been any religion in the child's presence. This or and other denomination and in fact, neither the father or the mother have anything to do with religion. This is the closest daycare to the father's house.
At this point, the religious part of the situation the mother would probably let slide. She understands the father is allowed to raise her in whichever religious organization he prefers while she is in his care.
She has not visited the daycare to see if there are any other potential issues (not licensed through the county, no criminal background checks on staff, cleanliness etc) I believe it's the fact that in a whole, she is not able to voice her 50% decision making on this or any other daycare about potential concerns she has.
He is reading the parenting plan word for word instead of what is best for the child. (In our opinion, 50/50 voice from both father and mother is best to come to a mutual agreement. It also appointed that each parent have that through the shared decision making). He refuses to allow a mutually agreed upon childcare due to the wording in the plan stating "...father is to let the mother know which daycare/organized program HE choses to enroll the child...." Is this a clerical issue and should the father lighten up to hear the mother's opinion or does this need to be brought to the attention of a PC.
The order as you've quoted it to us doesn't give mom an equal say - it merely requires dad to "provide the mother notice of the daycare/program in which HE intends to enroll the child". We have no access to the order beyond what you've described, but going on that language mom's mere wish that she had a 50% say, despite having no actual objection to the preschool or religious aspect, isn't going to get her very far.
What opinion does Mom want to share, other than "I wish I had more control when the children are with you, regardless of what our order says"?
It is scheduled for a parent coordinator meeting.
thank you for the input
