Issued by Alabama Department of Human Resources, Child Care Services Division, at step 4 of 6 in the opening sequence: get the permits for your kind of business.
A center caring for more than 12 children needs the license (centers run by churches may claim the exemption but then register and meet the health and fire rules). Apply with the zoning approval, the fire marshal’s and health department’s approvals, the floor plan and the director’s qualifications; background checks cover every staff member before the inspection. A six-month permit comes first while the center shows it meets the standards, then the two-year license.
