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.
A complaint was received on July 29, 2022, regarding concerns about improper discipline, unsanitary conditions, and lack of appropriate meals for the children in care. At the conclusion of an investigation starting August 8, 2022, and concluding August 25, 2022, this complaint is substantiated for improper discipline. While OCCL is unable to determine if Ms. Dutton put her hands around Child #1 s neck or intended to scare him in the basement, more than one source noted concerns about Ms. Dutton yelling at and humiliating children, with one source providing specific examples. Both sources noted a consistent lack of patience with the children. The breakfast provided on the day of the initial investigation visit did not match what was noted on the written menu, but the components did align with required Child Meal Patterns. There was no evidence to substantiate unsanitary conditions in the child care space. There are a lot of materials, but no surfaces seen were noticeably dirty. However, chemicals/cleaners were observed within reach of children if when they are taken into the basement.
