Keeping track of the required Illinois DCFS forms can help your business run more smoothly and make maintaining your license easier. The following are forms that you are most likely to use in your licensed family child care home. Always be sure to check the DCFS website under Forms for the most updated version of the forms.
These forms are likely the ones that you will need when new families are starting in your family child care home:

Depending upon the type of licensing your home has you will also need one of the following summaries. Parents should receive a copy and sign the verification of receipt of the summary.

You may need to use the following form if you have an assistant who works in your family child care business or for other adults in your home:
