21 licensed child care providers operate in Laurel. Each provider's page republishes its licensing record from the Delaware Office of Child Care Licensing: the citations from compliance visits, with the specialist's corrective-action note and the state's correction record for each, and the results of any complaint investigations. 19 of these providers have at least one citation in the published record window (November 2021 forward); the rest have none recorded in that window. Family child care homes — care in a private residence — are listed by name and city only, without a street address or citation text.
Reading a record: a compliance review is a licensing visit; a complaint investigation began with a complaint and shows the state's result. Delaware does not grade citations by risk level, and a long citation list is not a ranking — open the record and read what the specialist wrote, including whether the state recorded the correction as completed.
