  1. Immunization Records: At the the time of enrollment the parent needs to submit the child's immunization record or an exemption affidavit (see #2 below). Child care rules state that a center or group home cannot permit a child to attend until the parent submits either a written immunization record or an exemption affidavit. Immunization records may be obtained from your child's physician.
  2. "Request for Exemption to Immunization" form: Under certain circumstances, a parent may request an exemption too state immunization requirements. See the Request for Exemption to Immunization form [PDF 23K].
  3. "Emergency, Information and Immunization Record" card: At the time of enrollment, child care rules require that a child's parent or guardian complete and sign an Emergency Information and Immunization Record card (provided by the center or group home). See a sample completed card [PDF 991K].
  4. Admission and Release of Children: Child care rules require that each time a child is dropped off or picked up at a child care center or home, the parent (or other person designated by a parent in writing or by telephone) must sign the child in and out on the attendance form with at least a first initial and a last name. Centers and group homes may not admit or release a child without this signature. Persons signing a child out will be asked to show identification unless they are known to the center or group home staff.
