Quality child care is a valuable service to families and communities. It is DHS’s role to enforce Iowa Code as the regulatory agency for early childhood care and education. DHS licensing and registration consultants complete unannounced site visits to assure minimum health and safety requirements are met. CCR&R supports providers in complying with state regulations. CCR&R Child Care Consultants are committed to helping providers meet and exceed the licensing and minimum requirements that DHS enforces.

More information about licensing can be found here on the DHS Child Care Provider Portal website

Of course, you can always contact your local CCR&R office and we'd be more than happy to guide you in the right direction.
