Relating to: the regulation of family and group child care centers. (FE)
SB 364 updates Wisconsin's regulations for family and group child care centers. It increases the maximum number of children allowed in a family child care center from 8 to 12 and adjusts licensing fees to be paid every two years, with fees based on the number of children served (e.g., $60.50 biennially for centers serving 4-12 children). The bill also requires child care centers to provide staff training on preventing sudden infant death syndrome for infants under one year and mandates foster parents to complete approved training on caring for foster children. These changes directly affect licensed child care centers, foster parents, and kinship care providers by updating licensing rules, fee structures, and mandatory training requirements.
