Selvie, Ruby M

Small family home, licensed for up to 7 children.

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 10 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

Last visit: January 29, 2026
On file: 10 visits since October 2013
Fixed?: The latest correction deadline was February 5, 2026. 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.
