Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to directing the office of children and family services to develop a list of eligible substitute day care staff

AI Summary

This bill directs the New York State Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) to create and publicly post a comprehensive list of substitute day care staff that child day care providers can use when they are short-staffed or experiencing personnel gaps. The list will include detailed information about each eligible substitute staff member, specifically their name, age, location, and professional experience. By maintaining and sharing this centralized roster, the bill aims to help child care providers quickly find qualified temporary staff during unexpected staffing shortages, which can help ensure continuity of care and minimize disruptions to child care services. The legislation would take effect immediately upon passage, requiring OCFS to develop and maintain this resource for day care providers across the state.
