Chicago · Licensed family home

Arnold, Noni S

At a glance

  • Larger family home, licensed for up to 12 children.

Worth knowing

The state revoked this home’s license; it was pending revocation. Seen in September 2026.

Is this normal? 28 of 3,410 Chicago family homes licensed this summer no longer hold an active license. This is the only one of the 28 the state revoked.

Based on 3,410 Chicago family homes on the Illinois licensing list before Aug. 15 and checked again after Sept. 1.

Why this happens

In Illinois, the state must notify a provider before revoking or refusing to renew its license, and the provider has 10 days to ask for a hearing before the decision is final.

Ask them: whether the decision is under appeal and whether the program is operating normally today.

Is this out of date?

What to know

License: 6 weeks to 12 years (state).

The license is the range the state allows. It does not say which ages have openings.

What the state has found

The state lists 6 visits below. Shortlist has not read the reports behind them, so there is no share of visits that cited something to set beside other providers yet.

State record — Illinois DCFS

Illinois DCFS records this provider’s license as “Revoke License (RL)”. That is the state’s own wording, quoted as published. The record below is one the state published, and the state still publishes it. Check with the provider or the state directly.

Fixed?
The latest correction deadline was April 16, 2025. Illinois DCFS does not publish whether it was made.
Most serious
Illinois DCFS does not publish a severity level for a citation, so there is no most-serious to name.

Illinois DCFS cites each subsection of a rule separately, so one audit of a filing cabinet can produce ten citations. It publishes the rule’s title and a correction deadline, but no description of what was observed.

The state’s licensing record, read September 25, 2026

Illinois law on revoking a child care license (225 ILCS 10/9.01), in effect July 1, 2026

Details

Larger means licensed for 9 to 12 children, among Chicago-area’s 3,344 licensed family homes by state-licensed capacity. Small is 2 to 7; mid-size is 8.

The ages on the license are what the state licenses it to care for, which can be wider than the ages it takes.
