HB 1070 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Adds provisions regarding an in-home licensed day care

HB 1070 updates child care licensing rules for in-home day care facilities. It allows licensed in-home providers with a single adult caregiver to care for up to two children under one year old, expanding capacity limits. The bill also adds new exemptions from licensing requirements, such as for businesses providing child care to customers/employees (with conditions) and religious organizations operating preschools or schools. Unlicensed facilities must now disclose their status to parents and obtain a signed acknowledgment from guardians. Facilities receiving state or federal funds (except for certain food programs) remain required to be licensed.
