Go to the website for ODJFS (Ohio Department of Job and Family Services). They will either have information there for you or you can download the rules for daycare providers and the first section of those rules (if I'm remembering correctly) will tell you what steps to take and what requirements you have to meet. Good luck!

It is different with each state.  You need to look at your state government website to see if there is info or who to contact.  In Louisiana, to be a director, you need either 1 or 2 years of experience working in a daycare.  The building has to meet certain specifications, and they have square foot per child requirements.  Also, there are worker/child ratios that are smaller for younger children and larger for older children.\n\nAgain, find your state government website and start there on your search for the regulations.

The ADA regulations establish minimum standards for ensuring accessibility when designing and constructing a new facility or altering an existing facility, and requires such standards be met in "places of public accommodation" (businesses and non-profit agencies that serve the public) and "commercial facilities" (other businesses).

We have kids at our school with feeding tubes, etc.\n\nOur district requires that the PARENT come in and train nursing staff, teachers, and EA's who will be working with the child, and then sign a waiver of liability.\n\nHowever, I am in NM. You really need to have your district's central special ed office check their lawbooks.

Check out the web sites for the child services agency and state attorney general in your locale.

Your administration should provide you with standards, I would think?  Or ask another teacher for examples?

It depends on the zoning regulations in your county. Before you will be given your in-home daycare occupation permit, the county will inspect your premises to see if your establishment is in compliance with the rules -- from the signage, available parking spaces for picking in and out of the children, construction of the play yard, etc.\n\nHowever, the test with zoning rules compliance is always your neighbors. Most counties have this clause in their zoning rules -\n\n"If complaints are received reporting that any County Ordinances are being violated by the day care/preschool caregiver the County will review the complaint and may revoke the Home Occupation permit."\n\nIf your neighbors complain because of the loud noise, too much cars parked, customers' cars often speeding, or for some other reason, then you may face a tough time with the zoning authorities

Train the parents of the child on how to raise the child. Government can't take over that role. Look how it currently is done. A place of where child safety would gets its best source of knowledge is from mothers who raise their own children. Have Women run the service on a volunteer basis with no income and there would be an improvement in the CPS service.

Sorry, but I don't understand the question. Are you wanting information about what the director of a preschool program's job should be? If so, that can vary depending on what you mean. Is it strictly a preschool program or is it daycare? Is the director working directly with children or only administering the program?

If this is in relation to the UK... I don't know much about this directly, but my ex-wife is a child-care solicitor who works for a Local Authority as Head of Legal and she is always referring to the Children's Act.  Not sure if that will tell you what you need to know, but it will give you an understanding of the legal framework that works around children in the UK and the obligations and behvaiours you can expect from the relevant agencies.  I think that would be my starting point to dig into this.  I've attached a couple of links to the Act and a related site that might help.  Sorry I can't be of more use, but I hope that gets you going.  :)
