Operation Of Family Day Care

temporary custody and care on a regular basis during part or all of the day. Informal cooperative
arrangements among neighbors or relatives, or the occasional babysitting of children with or

Child Supervision Standards
Providing proper, timely supervision of a child's activity both inside and outside the home is the
parents and/or guardian's responsibility. They must assess the maturity and judgment of the
child, his/her capacity for self-care in any given situation, and accordingly set limits on the
child's activity, whereabouts, whom he/she associates with, and when he/she will return home.
Failure to provide adequate supervision and protection of a child may result in an allegation of
child neglect. Such parental or guardian behavior will be promptly addressed with appropriate
action.
Some examples of inadequate supervision are:
Absence of caretaker.
Leaving a child with an inappropriate, incompetent or incapacitated caretaker.
