First Licensing Call Notes

Ask before you purchase training, testing, equipment, or home improvements.

  1. Which home child care license, registration, or certification fits my plan?
  2. How do I receive the current orientation and application packet?
  3. Which paperwork and training certificates must be submitted together?
  4. Who in my household needs a background check, and when do fingerprints happen?
  5. Which home tests, fire, zoning, health, or business approvals apply locally?
  6. What must be completed before the home visit is scheduled?
