Home daycare forms

Thirteen pages you print as often as you need: one form when a family starts, a report for parents every day, and the records you keep when something happens.

What is inside

• An enrollment form for each new child
• Daily reports for infants, toddlers and preschoolers, and a two-per-page toddler report
• An incident and accident report
• A weekly sign-in and sign-out sheet
• A medication permission form and dose log
• A parent handbook outline with 14 headings and a signature page

The handbook is an outline. Each heading has a short question to help you write your own policies, so it is not legal advice; check your state's child care licensing rules. US Letter and A4, as two PDFs.

Doing the books too? The Home Daycare Business Kit is these forms plus our bookkeeping bundle for tax time: $24 for both instead of $28.

Try a few first

The enrollment form, the sign-in sheet, the incident report and the toddler daily report are free to download on their own.

Running the business side
