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.

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 June 4, 2026, regarding not following accident/injury procedures and not doing health checks. An investigation began on June 15, 2026, and concluded on June 25, 2026. There is no evidence to substantiate this complaint because staff members interviewed stated Child #1 did not receive any injury while at the center on June 3, 2026. Staff members interviewed described the center's procedures for documenting health observations and accidents, stating that injuries are reported to administration, parents are notified, and accident reports are completed when an injury occurs. Staff #4 stated they noticed what they perceived to be a small bug bite while changing Child #1 at pickup and pointed it out to another staff member during that time. Parent #1 arrived while Child #1 was still being changed and interacted closely with Child #1. Additionally, Administrator #1 stated they and a police officer reviewed the video footage and found nothing concerning. During the investigation, LS #1 reviewed Child #1 s health observation log, which documented health observations and notifications to administration and the parent. LS #1 was unable to independently review the video because the copies provided would not play.

An investigation began on December 1, 2025, and concluded on December 4, 2025.

Also, staff stated they requested a copy of Child #1 s IEP from the parent several times, and the parent finally provided a copy on October 22, 2025.
