Overview Who's Regulated by the Division of Child Development? If your provider is caring for more than two children who aren't related and they provide care for more than four hours a day, they probably should be licensed. In general, there are two types of programs regulated by the state, Family Child Care Homes and Child Care Centers. Family Child Care Home A smaller program offered in the provider's residence where there are five or fewer preschool children in care. In addition, they may also provide care for three school age children. Child Care Center A larger program providing care for more than three children but not in a residential setting. The number of children in care is based upon the size of individual classrooms and having sufficient staff, equipment and materials. Are Any Programs Exempt From Regulation? Yes. Listed below are those instances where a program does not have to be regulated by the Division: Recreational programs operated for less than four consecutive months in a year (e.g. summer camps) Specialized activities or instruction such as athletics, dance, art, music lessons, horseback riding, gymnastics, or organized clubs for children, such as Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, 4-H groups, or boys and girls clubs
