Bill > HB637

This bill requires the Office of Childhood (a state agency responsible for overseeing child care facilities) to create and distribute special placards for licensed child care facilities. These placards will feature a QR code that, when scanned with a smartphone or other device, will provide direct access to the facility's inspection reports. The bill mandates that each licensed child care facility must display this placard in a clearly visible location at the facility's entrance. This provision aims to increase transparency and provide parents and guardians with easy access to important information about the safety and quality of child care facilities, allowing them to quickly review recent inspection results before choosing or continuing to use a particular child care provider.
