A home-based child care in Washington is a licensed family home provider through the Department of Children, Youth & Families (DCYF). A family home provider may care for up to 12 children at a time under RCW 43.216.010; the program is licensed under WAC 110-300.
In Washington, family home child care is regulated by the Department of Children, Youth & Families (DCYF), not by Snohomish County. RCW 43.216.010 defines a family home provider as a child care provider who regularly provides early learning services for not more than 12 children at any given time in the provider's home. Programs must be licensed and meet the early learning program standards in WAC 110-300, covering health, safety, ratios, and background checks. County zoning treats a licensed family home child care as an allowed home use, subject to SCC 30.28.050 limits.
Operating an unlicensed family home child care, or exceeding the 12-child limit, violates state law and can result in DCYF enforcement, fines, and closure.
