Applicants and employees will no longer need to visit Las Vegas Metro for child care work cards Starting May 17, 2022, child care work cards will no longer be required as part of the fingerprinting process for background checks to work in state-licensed child care facilities.
As of that date, new and renewing child care employees in Clark County will submit fingerprints using the “live scan” process that is available at many fingerprinting businesses/agencies. Prints are still submitted to the Nevada Department of Public Safety, according to the requirements for all new child care facility employees or employees who are up for renewal. Child care employees need to take the Fingerprinting Instructions and Background Consent and Release forms with them when getting their fingerprints taken. The Out-of-State Verification form is needed by employees who have lived outside Nevada at any time during the past five years. Applicants/renewing child care employees in Clark County no longer need to go to a Las Vegas Metro Police office to pick up child care work cards. These individuals will now get live scanned or can get a fingerprint card from the employing child care facility to have fingerprints rolled in the traditional manner. The updated instructions and necessary forms are linked online at the Forms for Nevada Licensed Child Care Facilities web page. Anyone in the Clark County area seeking to complete their background check to work in a licensed child care facility can contact the State of Nevada Child Care Licensing office for help:
