Centralized Background Check Unit

Locate the CBCU representative assigned to your operation or background check according to the type of childcare operation you are affiliated with and your location to include the county and ZIP code where the childcare operation is located.

Use the Day Care Regulation Contacts if you are affiliated with a Licensed Child Care Center, Licensed Child Care Home, Registered Child Care Home, Listed Family Home, or a Small Employer Based Child Care operation.

Use the Residential Child Care Regulation Contacts if you are affiliated with a Child Placing Agency (including foster/adoptive homes) or a General Residential Operation.
