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 August 10, 2023, regarding not completing accident/injury reports, positive behavior supports, and lack of supervision. An investigation began on August 14, 2023. The complaint is substantiated for not documenting accident/injuries because Owner Matos stated she did not document Child #1 s injuries. The complaint is also substantiated for lack of positive behavior supports because staff members did not intervene quickly to ensure the safety of the Child #1 and Child #2 and allowed them to physically fight for almost three minutes before intervening and Owner Matos and Staff #1 demonstrate a lack of appropriate interactions as they are observed speaking in a disrespectful manner to the two children observed fighting. There is no evidence to substantiate for lack of supervision because two staff members are observed in the video footage watching the two children physically fight. A concern noted was video footage showed child care was being provided in an unapproved space in the large family child care home.
