The short answer
Record last released by Delaware Office of Child Care Licensing on Oct 23, 2026.
Each figure’s source sits beside it, in its section below.
What these words mean4
- Inspection (survey)
- A visit by state inspectors, often unannounced, who check a place against the rules it must meet. For nursing homes and other places Medicare pays, CMS calls these visits surveys: a standard survey of a nursing home comes at least every 15 months, and a complaint survey whenever a complaint calls for one. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.308.
- Deficiency, citation, violation
- What inspectors write up when a place didn’t meet a rule: the rule, what they saw, and when. CMS calls it a deficiency; states may say citation or violation. It is the inspectors’ finding, not a court’s, and the place is usually asked for a plan to correct it. Source: CMS, statement of deficiencies (Form CMS-2567); each state’s licensing agency.
- Licence status
- Whether the state’s licence lets the place operate now, in the state’s own words: licensed, on probation (allowed to keep operating on conditions, after problems), provisional, pending or expired. Source: Each state’s licensing agency.
- Capacity
- The most people the licence or certification lets the place care for at once: residents, children, beds or apartments, as the state counts them. It isn’t how many are there now. Source: Each state’s licensing agency.
What did inspectors find?
Delaware’s list shows only the visits that found violations, so a zero can’t be read either way: this provider may have had visits that found none, or no visit at all. No count is shown.

| Jun 30, 2026 | OCCL Standards Complaint: No Evidence to Substantiate | On May 19, 2026, the Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint regarding failing to follow regulations for outdoor play and failing to follow the termination policy. The incident had been previously discussed with OCCL staff on May 19, 2026, through phone calls and emails. An investigation began on May 19, 2026, and concluded on May 26, 2026. Based on interviews and a review of documentation, there is no evidence to substantiate this complaint for failing to follow regulations for outdoor play. Provider #1 stated they provided the children with water to drink, shade, and water play, including a wading pool. Weather documentation reviewed showed while there was a code orange air quality alert issued for May 19 20, 2026, the actual air quality was in the moderate code yellow range on those dates. While a heat advisory was also issued, the recorded temperature exceeded 89 degrees only for a short period of time in the afternoon. The provider was reminded to be aware of and follow all guidance regarding air quality or heat advisory alerts. Based on interviews and review of documentation, there is no evidence to substantiate this complaint for failing to follow the termination policy. Provider #1 provided documentation of a written text, rescinding their decision to terminate care for Child #1. |
| Sep 27, 2024 | OCCL Standards Complaint: Substantiated | On September 5, 2024, the Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint regarding not providing water to a child, keeping a child in restraining equipment for extended period of time, not meeting a child’s needs, and disrespectful communication with a parent. An investigation was conducted on September 10, 2024. Based on interviews conducted, this complaint is substantiated for disrespectful communication with a parent. Although Staff #1 stated Parent #1 was disrespectful to Staff #1 and Staff #2, Staff #1 stated they did use disrespectful language with Parent #1. Based on a follow-up phone interview with Staff #1, this complaint is substantiated for not completing an injury report for Child #1. Although Staff #2 had a conversation with Parent #2 about the injury to Child #1, there was no written documentation. Based on observations and interviews with staff, there is no evidence to substantiate this complaint for not providing water to Child #1. Staff #1 and Staff #2 both stated water is readily available to all children throughout the day. Staff #2 stated Child #1 had access to their cup and was observed picking up the cup during the day. When Staff #2 realized Child #1 was not getting water out of their cup, they provided Child #1 with a different cup. Based on interviews and documentation of text messages between Parent #2, Parent #1 and Staff #2, there is no evidence to substantiate this complaint for keeping a child restrained for an extended time. Staff #2 stated they placed Child #1 in the pack and play for ten to fifteen minutes at a time. Based on interviews and documentation, there is no evidence to substantiate this complaint for not meeting the needs of a child. Staff #2 stated they communicated with the Reporter and Parent #1 through text messages and in-person communication at pick up time about Child#1 s transition into the program. |

What the record doesn’t say
- Delaware doesn’t grade violations by severity, so read what was cited.
- Delaware’s open data lists a visit only when a violation was cited there, so visits that found nothing aren’t shown.
- Delaware publishes five years of reviews and complaints; this page shows the last three.
- Delaware doesn’t publish staffing levels or owners for individual providers.
- Delaware lists only the visits that found violations, so a provider with none listed may not have been visited at all: no count of violations is used to headline, filter or compare its providers.
