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.


I can't find a single source to back that up.

What did you google?

Nothing. Lol.

http://www.dss.virginia.gov/facility/child_care/licensed/child_day_centers/

Child day centers are child day programs offered to (i) two or more children under the age of 13 years in a facility that is not the residence of the provider or of any of the children in care or (ii) 13 or more children at any location. A child day program is a regularly operating service arrangement for children where, during the absence of a parent or guardian, a person or organization has agreed to assume responsibility for the supervision, protection and well-being of a child under the age of 13 years for less than a 24-hour period.


No, nanny shares are not illegal. Especially if there are only two children in the share. But if you read above, even if there ARE two or more children, as long as they are in the nanny's home or the home of one of the children, it isn't a child care center.

I wondered about this originally as well, but I think the difference is that you are not working out of your own home, but from someone else's (one of the families you are working for). If you were to work with more than one family (not related to you), at YOUR home, then you would have to be licensed as a home daycare.

If this is correct, how do you get around the law?
It's one thing if you're caring for your employer's child in the employer's home, but once you bring in an unrelated child, and pay for it, the caregiver needs to get a home daycare license. Is everyone hoping not to get noticed, or what?
