Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
The rule will affect small businesses but will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small businesses. The proposed rules will affect small businesses but will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small businesses. The standards in these rules are intended to protect and promote the health, safety and welfare of children in the care of unlicensed child care providers who receive reimbursement through state or federal funds.
Reporting requirements in the current rule include a general requirement to report any changes that affect the provider's eligibility under this chapter. Providers found this general requirement unclear so the proposed rules specify the important eligibility changes that must be reported to the county or tribal agency.
Bookkeeping requirements in the proposed rules include a requirement that there be a contract for each enrolled child be signed by the child care operator and a parent or guardian, and the operator must have on file a copy of the driver's license for all persons transporting children.
Professional skills include a requirement that a school-age child care operator have a high school diploma or equivalent; all certified family child care operators, employees, and volunteers who provide care and supervision for children under 5 years of age shall receive department-approved training on shaken baby syndrome and impacted babies and appropriate ways to manage crying or fussing children; and all family child care operators and substitutes who have worked at least 240 hours in a Level I (regular) home must take 2 credits of early childhood training or non-credit department-approved training. The T.E.A.C.H. Early Childhood® WISCONSIN Scholarship Program offers scholarship opportunities to teachers, family child care providers, center directors and administrators for credit-based training.
