The following was discussed with the licensee:

Licensee reminded that 100% supervision is required at all times to children in care. Licensee was made aware that it is he/her responsibility to know the regulations as well as anyone who assists in providing care. Licensing must have the facility’s phone number at all times; if the phone number is changed, licensing must be notified


The regulation prohibits the smoking of tobacco in a private residence that is licensed as a family childcare home and in those areas of the family day care home where children are present (24/7 ban). State law prohibits baby walkers, bouncy seats, exersaucers, and any other items that fall into that category.

Licensee was reminded that all adults 18 and over living or working in the home, including employees and volunteers, must obtain a criminal record clearance or exemption, or transfer their existing clearance or exemption, prior to initial presence in a licensed Family Child Care Home. A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day up to $500.00 maximum per day/per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.
