Licensing Information
The goal of child care licensing is to ensure the safety and developmental well-being of children while in out-of-home care.
Licensing laws vary from state to state and provide a baseline of quality below which it is illegal to operate. Before making a final choice, parents should contact their state’s child care regulatory office.
