The proposed rules require the parent of the child receiving care to sign this checklist, too. Grandparents, aunts, and uncles are exempt from these requirements, except the criminal background check. The DHSS Division of Children conducts regular, periodic compliance visits to license-exempt childcare homes. The number of visits is set in an annual monitoring plan. It also investigates complaints made about the homes, and these investigations can include site visits.
Parents can examine documentation of substantiated complaints.
