In North Dakota providers can be self-declared/registered or licensed. Registered means you can accept state-paid families. You can still only have up to five children including your own children under age 12. You can also be licensed as an in-home provider for up to 7 children and 2 more if they're before/after school (I'm not sure how summer time off works for the additional two) once again must include your own children under the age of 12. For example: if you had a tiny, tiny house you could still be licensed but may only be allowed the initial 5 or 6 at a time.....rare, but it's still 35 square feet minimum per child inside and 75 square feet minimum outside per child.
You can be group licensed in a home setting if your space allows for up to 12 or 18 depending on the county and you need previous smaller-family childcare work experience. The next step larger is a center which must be licensed. All require different core compentencies in training, fingerprinting, CPR/First Aid are current, on-going training, etc.
