[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only providers that will show up in the data base for the DSS, is State LICENSED Providers. Most of those on the provider list through the website hold a permit, like myself. There is no data base - you need to rely on interviews, talking to references, and touring the daycare home [/quote] Thanks so much--this is very helpful. Can someone help me understand the difference in oversight/requirements for being licensed vs. holding a permit? If I'm understanding correctly, it sounds as though licensure is only required for homes that take more than 5 children. I see that permit-holders must re-apply every year, but are there no inspections? The Fairfax County website says permit-holders are assessed and monitored but what exactly does that mean in practice?[/quote]
