There are many reasons behind childcare licensing; one of the most important ones is that all of the childcare centers are regulated. They all follow the same sets of rules and regulations so that the children are all safe and well taken care of.

To receive a program license there are many steps that need to be taken. First the applicant will need to apply for a probationary license. With the application there is also a checklist of the licensing rules that must be met before a license can be issued. Along with the application the applicant shall also pay the required fees, complete a background check, a statement from a representative of the department that details the results of any pre-licensing technical assistance, a statement from the applicant that indicates the center is in compliance with all applicable items, a copy of all the policies required and a completed copy of the check list. Once the probationary license has been obtained, you’ll need to obtain the regular license by completing background information, license renewal fee, any changes to center policies, changes to delegation of administration and any other materials determined by the department as necessary.

NAEYC accreditation is obtained through four different steps. First you’ll enroll by filling out forms, paying fees and registering. Then you’ll fill out the applications and self-assessment. Once you’ve completed your self-assessment you can then submit your candidacy materials. Meeting all of the standards is the next step; you’ll talk with a NAEYC assessor that will come in and go over everything with you from top to bottom. Within three months of the site visit you will receive the decision from the assessor. Finally, year after year it’s your duty to submit the annual report for NAEYC.
