Regulated Child Care
The provider may care for a maximum of six children (in special circumstances up to eight). Of that six, a maximum of three children may be less than 36 months of age. Of that three, a maximum of two children may be less than 24 months. There is provision in the legislation for providers to care for three children less than 24 months of age, but in those cases, the maximum number of children permitted is three. The provider’s own children who are in full-time attendance at school are not included in the maximum number. The actual number of children that the home is licensed or approved to care for will depend on factors such as the space available in the home.
Unregulated Child Care
no more than four children age 0-12 years, or to three children less than 24 months
