Home daycares in West Jordan are allowed as a home occupation but must comply with Utah state child care licensing rules and city zoning standards for residential child care.
West Jordan Municipal Code Title 13 (Zoning) permits residential child care as a home occupation in residential zones when operated by a resident of the dwelling. Operators must obtain a Utah Department of Health and Human Services Office of Child Care Licensing certificate or license depending on the number of children. Utah Code 26B-2-401 governs residential certificates (up to 8 children) and licensed family child care (up to 16). The city requires the activity to remain clearly incidental to residential use, with no exterior evidence other than permitted signage.
