Group family day care child-adult capacity ratios and age distribution restrictions modifications

This bill modifies licensing rules for group family day care providers who care for 18 or fewer children in a home setting. It updates child-adult capacity ratios and age restrictions, specifying limits like: for 18-child groups, no more than 16 children under age 5 (with no more than four under 12 months), and allowing a helper to replace a second adult if infant numbers are low. These changes directly affect home-based day care providers and the county agencies that license them. The bill also clarifies variance rules for license capacity limits and reporting requirements.
