Expands privacy protections for personal information of all licensed or certified child care providers in Washington.

The bill extends privacy protections for personal information of child care providers to all licensed or certified providers, not just those in family home settings. This includes exempting information such as names, home addresses, phone numbers, and photographs from public disclosure. The aim is to protect these providers from safety risks, harassment, and targeted retaliation. The Department of Children, Youth, and Families will update privacy guidance and training materials to reflect these changes.
