Re: Adult Special Needs Daycare
Posted by Delia Ferrandino on 9/04/08
Hi I have the need to stay home and have a spec needs child, I too
have the same vision. today I will call the town social workers and
find out what the need is and then find town funding or state
funding.What I did find out was the regs are the same for home
daycare for any other child. Obviously this is uncharted territory;
huge need. My child could not navigate the public day care with such
a large mass of children and less one on one. Let's keep in touch.
