Kapolei family child care homes serving three to six unrelated children are defined and licensed under HRS Sec. 346-151 by the Department of Human Services and supported locally by ROH Sec. 21-5.350.
Hawaii state law preempts much of the regulation of in-home child care. HRS 346-151 defines a family child care home as a private residence caring for three to six unrelated children, licensed by DHS under HRS Chapter 346 Part VIII. Locally, ROH Sec. 21-5.350 treats licensed family child care as a home occupation and allows a substitute caregiver exception to the household-member employee rule. Kapolei providers must meet state standards for health, safety, fire, and staffing, and maintain the residential character of the home so neighborhood impacts stay minimal.
Unlicensed child care, exceeding capacity limits, or violating substitute caregiver rules can lead to DHS enforcement and licensing penalties.
