In one of the last sessions of the year, the New Hampshire Senate voted to pass a bill that would change zoning laws for family childcare providers and make it easier to open a small childcare center. 

Family childcare, also known as home-based childcare, accounts for about 15% of licensed childcare in New Hampshire. Home-based childcare often provides families further away from population centers with access to care, but can be limited by zoning laws that conflict with state childcare licensing requirements.
