What about licensing and insurance? In some states such as Maryland and Washington, when two or more families hire a nanny to care for non-related children at the same time, a state family child care license is required. You will want to check you state's requirements, and the host family definitely needs to have a frank conversation with their insurance agent about liability (worker's compensation, claims by the non-host family, transportation liability).

You have to undergo the procedures for the family child care provider, and the host family must meet the requirements that a in home daycare usually needs. Particularly fire and emergency requirements, safe sleep areas, etc. GO to the Maryland State Child Care Licensing Branch for more information.

Also California and Washington has the same law. I am not sure about any others.

This. In Maryland, the nanny would be operating an illegal home daycare service if she's being paid to provide care for a child, outside of that child's home. The homeowner would legally be held responsible.[/quote]

It would be illegal if the nanny was caring for the children inside the nannies home. [/quote]

In Maryland she can watch the household's children legally but not the other children.

Yes, nanny shares are illigal in Maryland but I don't think they are cracking down on it- but they can if someone reports you.  HEAVY fines.  It's funny because so many people eschew in-home daycares but they are a-ok with hosting illegal daycares in their own homes.  No inspections, no insurance, no disaster training, nothing.  [/quote]
All of the above posts explaining the licensing requirements are totally accurate. We went through the process.[/quote]
