| (a) The primary caregiver is the person responsible
for ensuring that the home operates in compliance with these minimum
standards and the licensing laws. The primary caregiver of a licensed
or registered child-care home must:
(1) Live in the home where care is provided, unless
the home was licensed as a group day care home prior to September
1, 2003. Refer to §747.111 of this title (relating to What is
a licensed child-care home?); and
(2) Be the permit holder unless the primary caregiver
forms a business entity that is the permit holder for the home.
(b) A permit holder licensed to operate one or more
group day care homes prior to September 1, 2003, must designate,
on a DFPS form, a person who meets the qualifications in §747.1101
of this title (relating to Who is required to meet the qualifications
specified in this division?) to act as the primary caregiver for each
licensed child-care home. This exception will not apply to an operation
when the permit issued prior to September 1, 2003, is no longer valid.
