Section 414-360-0140 - [Effective 7/1/2025] Issuance of Certification

(1) Upon receipt of a completed application, a certified family child care will be evaluated by a representative of CCLD to determine if it meets all certification requirements.

(2) CCLD will issue a regular certified family child care certification when the home is determined to be in compliance with all of these rules. For a certified family child care, a regular certification is valid for no more than 12 months.

(3) CCLD will issue a temporary certified family child care certificate when the home is determined to be in compliance with most of these rules, CCLD has not identified deficiencies that are hazardous to children, and the provider demonstrates an effort to be in full compliance.

(a) CCLD may issue a temporary certified family child care certification when a renewal application is submitted less than 30 days prior to the certification expiration date or in response to an initial application.

(b) A certified family child care may not operate under a temporary certification for more than 180 days in any 12month period.

(c) CCLD may deny an initial or renewal application or revoke a temporary certificate if deficiencies continue while the temporary certification is in effect.

(4) A certified family child care may not operate after expiration or revocation of a temporary certification unless a prior regular certification is active due to a renewal application submitted more than 30 days before the regular license expiration date.

(5) The license will be issued in the name of the provider. A provider is limited to one certificate at one address.

(6) For certified family child care, an owner:

(a) Who has no regular caregiving duties, may own any number of certified family child care homes.

(b) Who is the provider at one home, may be the owner of only one additional home.

(c) Can be the provider at two certified family child care homes when:

(A) Both homes are licensed for 12 or fewer children; and

(B) The minimum hours on-site caring for children (see OAR 414-360-0320(2)) are met at each home.

(7) A certified family child care certificate cannot be transferred to any other location or to another organization or individual.

(8) Only one certified family child care certificate will be issued at one address.

(9) A provider must request in writing to CCLD any changes in the conditions of the license such as ages of children served, capacity, changes in room use, or hours of operation. A provider must receive approval and, if applicable, a reissued license from CCLD before operating with the changes.
