Child Care Services
Child day care is the care by a parent substitute for a portion of a 24-hour day. The term ” day care ” service refers to both “day time” care and “night-time” care. “Night-time” care is usually provided after 7:00 p.m. This would also include so-called “third-shift”, “odd hour”, and week-end care.
If a provider is required to be licensed or chooses to be licensed, a staff member from the State Department of Human Resources performs that function.
