Child daycare facilities: anaphylactic policy.

Existing law, the California Child Day Care Facilities Act, provides for the licensure and regulation of child daycare facilities by the State Department of Social Services. Under the act, "child daycare facility" is defined to mean a facility that provides nonmedical care to children under 18 years of age in need of personal services, supervision, or assistance essential for sustaining the activities of daily living or for the protection of the individual on less than a 24-hour basis. For purposes of the act, a child daycare facility includes a daycare center, an employer-sponsored childcare center, and a family daycare home. Under existing law, a violation of the act is a crime.
