A FAMILY CHILD CARE HOME is operated in the licensee's own home. A Family Child Care Home provides non-medical care and supervision to 14 or fewer children in a homelike environment for less than 24 hours.
To become a Family Child Care provider, you will need to be licensed. Here are a few good reasons for you to make the effort to become a licensed Family Child Care provider.
|
|
You are licensed by the State of California. |
|
Resource and Referral agencies (R&Rs) refer parents to you. |
|
Your home is considered safe and meets basic health and safety requirements. |
|
You can use your child care expenses as business expenses. This allows you to deduct the expenses in full when you file your income tax forms. |
|
You may be able to receive reimbursements for the meals and snacks you serve to the children in your care through the Child Care Food Program. |
