    It probably depends on how recent the charge is. I believe my state only looks at child abuse/neglect charges, and disregards criminal charges if they even look at them. I THINK. I don't remember being asked for anything but a release to check the child abuse registry.

      I skimmed the Illinois regs, and I *think* a DUI wouldn't disqualify you from getting a day care license. Again, I only skimmed the regs, read them throughly and/or talk to Illinois licensing to be sure.

      IIRC, in my state a DUI would only affect your ability to offer transportation.

          Felony

          I have applied for a daycare center and I was arrested for a felony theft charge. I have not gone to court or seen a judge yet. Could this be on my background check and will it prevent me from getting this job?

                A misdomeanor DUI doesn't count in South Carolina...only a felony. Not sure about Colorado...call licensing & ask (you don't have to give your name if you're embarrassed)

                      You could start here https://www.daycare.com/kansas/

                      One of the contact agencies may be able to answer that for you.

                        Florida

                        I am currently taking a director course and is wondering if my record will cause me any problems to open my own childcare facility. I was arrested in 2008 for petit theft and I was able to just take some class because it was my first offense, after that I expunged that record. Now in 2014 while 8 1/2 months pregnant I was charged with domestic violence-charges were dropped. But, my fear is will I be able to open one with these two things on my record? I live in florida.

                              Again ... I think it's been mentioned many times (in this thread and in others) that it depends a lot on the situation and the severity. Each case is decided on a case by case basis so you should really contact your local licensing office to ask whether or not they can answer your questions.

                              I do know that if you are approved but your husband or other adult in the home is not you have the option to appeal or to apply for a variance. If approved for a variance you can still get a license with the condition that whoever it was that was denied not be present at all when daycare children are present. I do not know much more on this however and really your best bet for answers on how this all works is to call licensing directly to ask them.
