DCYF pays additional subsidies to a licensed or certified family child care home or center when:

(1) Care is for nonstandard hours as defined in WAC 110-15-0249;
(2) A child has a documented special need under WAC 110-15-0220;
(3) Care is not available at the DCYF rate and the provider's usual rate is authorized;
