Funny fact! I ran out of the blue cards and my licenser said to just write "blue Card" on the top!

I was told that if I ran out of blue cards, to make sure I printed them on blue paper. That hasn't been an issue as I just call the county health department and they mail me a stack.

yep, every lic. rep is different!
I have been spoiled with an awesome rep for the last 3 years. I have always passed every inspection I have had with flying colors..(12 years) She told me last time that she would be retiring and I am a little sad.

But the one thing every rep has told me personally and at the orientation meeting is ,NO adults in the home unless they are finger printed. I really like this reg...It gives me the perfect excuse to keep out anyone that I don't want in here! ::::::

Yep, it's what I was told by my analyst.

I have passed every inspection in the past 29 years, except for the last one that I got written up for the 2 tomato plants - Class A citation. We have no garden this year.

Obviously California regulations/rules are VERY open to interpretation depending on which licensor or area you live in........so

I have always passed every inspection I have had with flying colors

if that is the case ^^ Does passing an inspection with flying colors REALLY mean anything?



* I am NOT being snarky......really I am not.

But if licensors/agencies in California can't even agree on ONE basic set of rules, then a perfect inspection record really doesn't mean much.

Especially considering the fact that if any other licensor or agency did the inspection some things you normally do wouldn't pass then, right?

I feel really badly for providers in your state because the rules/regs are so confusing and complex and even worse for the parents as they really have no way of knowing if their provider is following the correct or incorrectly interpreted regulations.

I had mentioned it before and am still very serious about conducting a research study on the Cali Regs from county to county.

Give me a couple of weeks to finish some stuff I am doing here and I will develop a Methodology and start a research group in the social groups section on the forum. I will invite all Cali girls to participate.

Seriously, something NEEDS to be done about the lack of consistency.

Does every county in CA. have its own rules/reg. book for childcare?

If not, how come there are soooooo many different rules and regulations then. Thats what would concern me first! I can't believe that if there is only one book, that each county can have their own set of rules they follow.

Our state has one book for rules/reg. depending on what level of childcare you do=registered/certified/center would each have their own book.

I know our licensors can have their own interpertation but they are really cracking down on them and I believe its making a huge difference here.

After looking at the link you guys do that show the rules/regs., you guys really don't have alot. Also, it seems there aren't alot of safety rules in place or maybe I just wasn't looking at it correctly as it was a little hard to read on line.

I have done child care in south and north califorbia

Licensing rules stayed exactly the same. City and county rules were the only difference. Which really still didn't have an impact on rules or regs

So cities and counties have rules for childcare? I have never heard of this!

It just sounds sooooo confusing!:confused:
