How to read this record
A compliance visit is a licensing visit by an OCCL specialist. When the specialist finds a regulation has not been met, the visit record carries a citation: the regulation's code and short description, the specialist's corrective-action note describing what was found, and the correction record — the date correction was due, whether the state has marked it completed, the date it was corrected, and how. A complaint investigation begins with a complaint; its record carries the state's result and the investigator's written conclusion. Delaware does not grade citations by risk or severity, so no grade is shown — the specialist's note is the substance of the record. One visit can produce several citations. A citation the state later records as corrected stays in the history; that is what a licensing record is.
Visits and investigations, newest first
A complaint investigation. The state's result is shown above, and the investigator's conclusion follows.
The Office of Child Care Licensing (OCCL) received a complaint on September 24, 2026, regarding concerns of improper diapering and toileting practices and staff-to-child ratios. An investigation was conducted on October 8, 2026, which included interviews, review of attendance records, and classroom observations. There is no evidence to substantiate this complaint regarding improper diapering and toileting practices. Staff interviewed stated children are changed when found to be wet or soiled and stated they follow diapering and toileting regulations and facility procedures. There is no evidence to substantiate this complaint regarding staff-to-child ratios. Attendance records reviewed and classroom staff-to-child ratio counts conducted during the investigation showed no evidence of improper staff-to-child ratios.
