Spin Off From Parents Thread

I do think it is a county thing now. Initially I just assumed every county used the form, but it is nowhere on the licensing site so it must be Sac County

You scared the crap outta me. But it was a good thing. Lol

Well, I do and it is worth it.
I would never do anything that will cause me to lose my license and put kids at risk.
My dh won't even leave me alone when a repairman is here.

Luckily my very talented hubby and sons can fix just about anything!

See that's exactly the point. The state has to realize that child care providers most likely do not have a free and immediate worker who can repair all the endless possibilities that could occur in a home or center setting. Requiring all repairs being done sans kids would put a helluva burden on child care providers. There is just too many situations where it would inconvenience the parents to remove their kids in order to have repairmen come to fix something that couldn't wait without safety issues or serious damage to the property. What you are saying just doesn't make sense.

really I find it stupid you can't have a repair man. My dishwasher is broken and they only work till 5pm, so he has to come during daycare hours and where I live I can't be picky when he comes. Its still not fixed and they have to come out again. As a matter of fact, the kids annoy them so much that they work faster to get out of my house faster.

Lol. We can have them come. At least in northern CA we can.

I had a poop flowing toilet and a broken front window repaired during Daycre hours. It's not ideal, but when it's needed it's needed.

Crystal, I have never seen that form. Is there a LIC # on it anywhere?

Here we go again with the inconsistencies of CA DSS-CCL. What is allowed in one county is not allowed in another.

[Little Star75]

Absolutely not true and very dangerous information..
I would never allow a repairman in my home with the kids present!
I will call licensing tomorrow, but I have been told many times by licensing it's against regulations.

I'm in California and I was told by licensing that's as long as the "other" person, repairman, homeschool teacher, etc aren't having direct interaction with the children that its ok. Not sure what the argument here is but as matter of fact I just called licensing last week asking about my daughters homeschool teacher. Her teacher has always come after hours but next school year she will be available only during the day, because I didn't want anyone else I called licensing to make sure if it was ok for the teacher to be here during business hours. I spoke to my licensor and said "as long as she does not have direct contact with the children, then it's ok"

[Crystal]

I am allowed to have student teachers here for up to 15 hours per week (each student) without a background check. As is seen in the link/info I posted. I even called to verify. They just cannot be left alone with the children.

There is absolutley NO regulation that says you cannot have repair persons on the premises during hours without a background check.

BTW....here is the scan of the back of the form licensing gives me that requires a signature to transport for field trips, for those of you who were concerned about it in the other thread (please excuse the mark outs, I just realized I didn't have a blank copy...time to order more!)

Interesting... I don't have this form and even re-checked my blue immunization cards, because I saw whooping cough, etc. on this one. CA needs to get it together! Geez this is craziness!
