[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello- Daycare provider here.  The temporary covid rules were just rescinded with a couple of exceptions:

Family and Friend Care: [b]Effective July 20, 2020, unlicensed Family and Friend Care will no longer be allowed.[/b] A family child care home is not required to be registered if the provider: (a) is a relative of each child; (b) is a friend of each child's parent or legal guardian and the care is provided on a non-regular basis of less than 20 hours a month (COMAR 13A.15.02). Family and friend providers wishing to continue to provide child care services should contact their regional licensing office to become a licensed family child care provider. Information on licensing can be found here: https://earlychildhood.marylandpublicschools.org/child-care-providers/licensing

In homes are licensed for 8 children but it's based on the square footage of the home and if the providers has children of their own under 6 years old.   "Large Family Childcare" homes can be up to 12 children (they need assistants).  I know some people do nanny shares here but in Maryland they are illegal and you can be fined if you are reported.

A good resource for you to skim through is https://earlychildhood.marylandpublicschools.org/[/quote]

I see, so until basically now, someone could be unlicensed because of COVID logistics and they  are rescinding it. But now that we know there will be virtual school most places,  will they un rescind? [/quote]
