Mississippi regulates child care facilities under MS Code §43-20-1 et seq., administered by the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH) Child Care Facilities Licensure Division. Family child care homes caring for 5 or fewer children (not including the provider's own) are exempt from state licensing but must still comply with Hinds County home occupation zoning. Licensed family homes serve 6 to 12 children with provider plus one assistant. Requirements: criminal background check (fingerprint-based), child abuse registry check, CPR/first aid certification, TB testing, 15 hours annual training, minimum 35 sq ft indoor space per child, 75 sq ft outdoor, fire safety inspection, and liability insurance. Hinds County home occupation rules limit non-resident employees and prohibit signage in residential zones. The Jackson city zoning ordinance requires a conditional use permit within city limits.
Operating unlicensed (6+ children): closure plus $500 to $5,000 fine. Safety violations: license suspension/revocation. Zoning violations: stop-operation order plus fines.
