Family Handbooks and Policies & Procedures Handbooks are a key piece of running a successful child care program (and they are required in the WACs). BrightSpark has created these easy-to-use templates for creating a custom handbook that meets the specific needs of your child care program. This template includes instructions on how to use the documents, and has been reviewed by the Department of Early Learning to ensure your handbooks meet basic licensing guidelines.
Disclaimer: These templates are provided as an example only. They are intended to be a source of information and not an opinion or legal advice regarding any specific situation or policy. Licensing requirements and labor laws are constantly changing. Different laws and procedures may apply in different circumstances. You should always consult with your licensor to comply with all local and state laws and requirements.
TO ACCESS YOUR HANDBOOKS: Ensure you are logged into your BrightSpark account on www.brightspark.org. Click “My Account” in the top right corner of the website and then click “Downloads” on the lefthand menu. You can then download and edit your handbooks from there.
Please note: As of October 1st, 2025 Washington State Business and Occupation tax codes require that businesses charge a tax on services and activities (ESSB 5814). Due to this change, BrightSpark will now be charging a sales tax on all trainings and handbooks.
