DaycareRules and the fine print of home childcare

Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A state-by-state reference to home daycare licensing thresholds, capacity limits, age ratios, and cited regulations.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-02 issue.

Field notes

The reference separates unlicensed childcare thresholds from the capacity and age-mix rules that apply inside home daycare tiers. Its stated review process has two readers examine each state’s statutes and licensing rules independently, with disagreements checked against primary text. The homepage lists 20 states plus the District of Columbia as verified so far, although its navigation presents the larger intended scope as 50 states plus DC. Each entry is intended to carry a quotation, section citation, and verification date.
