The short answer
Record last released by Delaware Office of Child Care Licensing on Oct 26, 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.

| Date | What | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Jul 1, 2026 | OCCL Standards Complaint: No Evidence to Substantiate | The Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint on June 15, 2026, regarding concerns of not changing a child’s soiled clothing and qualified staff during afternoon and pickup hours. On June 24, 2026, Licensing Specialist (LS) #1 conducted an unannounced investigation at the facility. During the investigation, LS #1 interviewed Administrator #1, Staff #1, and Staff #2 regarding the incident involving Child #1 and the presence of qualified staff during afternoon and pickup hours. LS #1 also reviewed staff schedules, classroom assignments, attendance records, and communication records provided by the facility. There is no evidence to substantiate concerns regarding not changing a child’s soiled clothing. Documentation reviewed showed Parent #2 was contacted immediately after staff observed Child #1 had soiled their clothing. Staff and administration consistently stated Child #1’s parent was contacted due to safety and sanitation concerns related to Child #1’s resistance during diaper changes. There is no evidence to substantiate concerns regarding unqualified staff during afternoon and pick-up hours. LS #1 reviewed staff schedules, classroom assignments, and attendance records and did not identify any instances of unqualified staff members being left alone supervising children. |

How does it compare nearby?
- Providers aren’t compared: Delaware lists only the visits that found violations, so a count can’t tell a clean record from one never visited.

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.
