Questions parents ask about Josephine's Creations Child Care Center
Is Josephine's Creations Child Care Center a licensed child care provider in Florida?
- No. The Florida Department of Children and Families lists Josephine's Creations Child Care Center as "Registered", which means it operates without a DCF child care licence rather than under one. Exempt providers remain on the DCF public record under record number R02LE0053, and Florida still requires background screening of their staff, but they are not licensed and are not inspected on the same schedule. Confirm current standing with DCF before enrolling.
Does Josephine's Creations Child Care Center accept School Readiness subsidies?
- Yes. The DCF record shows Josephine's Creations Child Care Center participates in Florida's School Readiness program, so families approved for child care assistance through their local Early Learning Coalition may be able to use it here.
How many children can Josephine's Creations Child Care Center care for?
- Josephine's Creations Child Care Center is licensed for up to 10 children. Licensed capacity is a legal maximum, not current availability or enrollment.
Has Josephine's Creations Child Care Center had any licensing violations?
- Florida DCF has recorded 4 inspections at Josephine's Creations Child Care Center, 3 of which recorded at least one finding. Reports are published by the state and summarized as reported; a finding is a cited standard, not a judgment of overall quality.
