CHILD CARE LICENSING AND REGISTRATION

The State of Kansas requires that anyone providing home based childcare for unrelated children on a regular basis be licensed.  The Health Department is the local agency responsible for overseeing the regulations for all home providers, childcare centers and preschools. 

A list of all licensed childcare providers in Marion County is available by calling Child Start at 1-877-678-2548.

Information on applications or complaints regarding a provider may be directed to the Health Department’s childcare surveyor, Lori.

Information and applications may also be obtained from the KDHE website: www.kdheks.gov/kidsnet.

Information about the WeeCare providers organization call Debbie Regier at 620-382-2787.
