Overbooking rooms

Hi, my room is licensed for 15 children a day, 2-3. Our ratio is 5 children to 1 staff member.
They have been overbooking our room lately, some days we have 18 children. They don’t see this as a problem as they give the room an extra staff member.
Our room resembles an industrial chicken farm, it’s just simply not big enough to hold that amount of children. We have to borrow beds from other rooms at rest times. Can they actually do legally do this, despite the fact they give us an extra staff member so we are in ratio.
We had 17 children in a room one day. A family came in for a tour... “we have up to 15 children in this room per day”, said the director.
