Exempt military-certified child care providers from licensure

Summary

The bill adds a new exemption to Ohio’s child‑care licensing law, allowing providers who are certified by any branch of the U.S. armed forces, including the Coast Guard, to operate without a state license. It applies to family‑child‑care homes run by these military‑certified providers, reducing the regulatory steps they must follow. The change is intended to recognize military certification as sufficient for child‑care quality and oversight.
