Registered and licensed home daycares in unincorporated Collin County must comply with Texas HHSC minimum standards under 26 TAC Ch. 744-747. County has no separate home daycare permit; cities within Collin (Plano, McKinney, Frisco) add local home occupation rules.
Texas Health and Human Services Commission licenses three categories: Listed Family Home (1-3 kids), Registered Child-Care Home (up to 6 kids plus 6 school-age), and Licensed Child-Care Home (up to 12 kids). Operators must complete 30 hours pre-service training plus 30 hours annual continuing education, CPR/first aid certification, and background checks for all household members 14+. Collin County unincorporated areas have no zoning, so home daycare operates under state law only. Fire marshal inspection required for Licensed Child-Care Homes.
Operating without HHSC registration: Class B misdemeanor under TX Human Resources Code 42.041, up to 180 days jail and 2,000 fine. Exceeding capacity or ratio violations can trigger license revocation.
