What if my childcare provider tells me it is against the law or a health code violation for day care or childcare facilities to use cloth diapers or store soiled cloth diapers?
First, be assured that Ohio and Kentucky laws allow for cloth diapers to be used and soiled diapers stored at day care facilities. It is not the state (or commonwealth) but, instead, individual care companies that decide to not allow cloth diapering – or even disposable diapering – at its facilities. Politely point the facility’s representative to Ohio Administrative Code 5101:2-12-15.2 Diapering and toilet training for licensed child care centers (see point 7) or the Kentucky Division of regulated Child Care (“An adequate quantity of freshly laundered or disposable diapers and clean clothing shall be available”). Note that, depending on the type of facility and who is doing the laundering, an Ohio day care can hold soiled cloth diapers for one, five or seven consecutive days.
