Records held from Sep 27, 2021 onward. Earlier visits may exist in the agency’s own files.

Delaware publishes only visits where a regulation was cited, plus complaint investigations. Visits that found no violations do not appear in the state's data, so a gap between dates here does not mean the program went uninspected. Delaware does not publish a severity weight for its citations.

How to read violations

Nearly every licensed provider accumulates some. A missing signature and an unlocked medicine cabinet are both “violations”, and they are not the same thing. Look at the class, the pattern over time and how quickly it was corrected — not the count alone.

Paperwork — records, postings, forms Standard — supervision, ratio, training Health & safety — direct risk to a child

Class is our grouping of the state’s own weights, reviewed per state. The agency’s own label is always shown beside it.

Substantiated complaint

“The Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint on October 13, 2025, regarding staff not receiving the staff handbook, staff not completing the orientation, outdoor area, indoor space, staff and child attendance, not keeping medications out of the children s reach, not keeping chemicals out of the children s reach, having chemicals in the labeled soap/water bottles instead of soap and water, not having paper towels for handwashing, not following meal pattern requirements, and allowing children to walk unsupervised to the bus without parent permission. An investigation was conducted on October 23, 2025. This complaint is substantiated because water bottles containing chemicals were labeled as soap and water, wires on the small playground were exposed, and the fence on the large playground did not have functioning self-closing and self-latching mechanisms. There is no evidence to substantiate staff not being oriented, staff not receiving a handbook, attendance records not being used, medications being stored in children s reach, unlocked cabinets with chemicals in children s reach, a child spraying chemicals in their face, inadequate portions sizes served at meals, and school-age children being unsupervised at the bus stop based on interviews and observations.”
