I know very little but thought since no one had attempted to answer your question, I would try to share what little I know.

Not sure if you were thinking about doing an in-house daycare or a freestanding one, but here is a link and info on how to get licensed.

Q. Who do I contact about opening a day care ?

The N.C. Division of Child Development at 800-859-0829.

The Land Use and Environmental Services Agency (LUESA) :

License for 6-12 children = Residential Technical Services 704-336-8984, License for 13+ = Patrick Granson 704-432-0081.

Health Department: 704-336-5101.

Not to mention, a degree in Early Childhood Education would be important!

Do you want to start an actual center, or are you looking to do in-home daycare?
