Family day care in Broome County homes regulated under NY Social Services Law Article 6 and 18 NYCRR Part 417. OCFS registration required for 3-6 children; licensing required for 7-12.
Home-based daycare in Broome County follows NY State Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) rules. Registered Family Day Care (up to 6 children plus 2 school-age) requires OCFS registration under 18 NYCRR 417. Group Family Day Care (7-12 children) requires OCFS license and a qualified assistant. Municipal zoning in Broome County towns generally permits family day care as accessory home use, consistent with NY Social Services Law 390 which limits local zoning restrictions on state-registered providers.
Operating without OCFS registration: civil penalties up to $500 per day. Exceeding child capacity: license revocation.
