If you paid, how much? initially and monthly? I am not sure exactly how much they paid, but I believe it was quite expensive. We do not pay monthly though.

No electronic attendance. But for state subsidy clients we can do our billing online instead of using paper forms and we do have to enter attendance for billing.
I'm in Iowa.

This is the same for NY. They just started having us do the billing for our state pay clients online instead of paper, but no special equipment or software was required (besides a computer with internet).

I'm in Florida. I have no idea what it is so I guess we don't have it. That said, in Florida, daycare rules are by county so it depends on what county you are in. I am also an in home daycare. Not sure what rules they have for centers. Nothing in Broward County that I know of for home daycares.

Electronic Submission, in addition to paper copy, is mandatory if accepting subsidy/food program $$. Paper version is required to be kept onsite for two years for all LEGAL providers, even if all clients are private pay.

Looks like the information you received is incorrect. :confused: I count atleast 18+ states listed here that do not have electronic attendance.

No electronic attendance in TN either!

Hi all,

I read in Washington's propaganda that 30 states now have electronic attendance for children in care. Likely it's required only that state-subsidized parents must use this system . Please identify your state and tell me, do you have electronic attendance?

Electronic attendance? yes/no
What state are you?
Who paid for equipment? you/state
If you paid, how much? initially and monthly?

Thanks much.

I'll keep a tally as folks respond.

"propaganda" ?? Why is it propoganda?:confused:

Florida......no to all, but I heard they may be doing it soon.
Considering the poor track record of Florida's DCF, probably a good idea.

[NightOwl]

It's coming. Alabama is a pilot state and we've had it for a couple of years now (subsidized families only). They intend to make it national. And yes, it can be a real pain in the ass!
