  • On the link I provided, you will find the license requirements. Individuals and agencies that offer child care must be licensed through the State of Washington with few exceptions. You need to be licensed if: o You are caring for a child or children who are not related to you (except a close relative); o The care is on an ongoing, regularly scheduled basis for the purpose of engaging in business. The mission of the Department of Early Learning (DEL) is to support access to safe, healthy, quality and culturally relevant child care for the children of Washington State. Persons who care for a relative's, neighbor’s or friend’s child or children (known as Family, Friend and Neighbor {FFN}) with or without compensation, where the person providing care for periods of less than twenty-four hours does not conduct such an activity on an ongoing, regularly scheduled basis for the purpose of engaging business, which includes but is not limited to, advertising. Such care is not required to be licensed but is an option for FFN providers. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/WAC/default.aspx?cite=170
