Licensed Options
There are 3 types of licenses for child care: the family home, the group home, and the child care center. The Michigan Department of Human Services (DHS) Child Care Licensing regulates child care. One must apply for a home license or a center license to care for unrelated children and follow all of the rules and regulations.
• Family Child Care Homes
• Group Child Care Homes
• Child Care Centers
• Preschool Programs
• School Age Programs
Non-Licensed Options
Michigan does not regulate child care provided by a relative or someone you hire to do care in your home.
• Relative Care - Read these tips to help make relative child care work for your family.
• In-home Child Care - This resource lists information and resources to help you find in-home child care.
