What the Record Shows

  • OEC does not publish when a violation was corrected, so it is worth asking what changed after each one.
  • OEC’s files list no enforcement action in this window.
  • No complaint investigation appears in this window. OEC publishes what an investigation found, not what the complaint alleged.
  • The latest full inspection, June 23, 2026, recorded no violations.

03

Context

Patterns Worth Examining

A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.

No citation repeats across the 8 visits in this window. That is what the record shows; it is not a judgment of care. The questions that follow still apply.

    04

    For Your Next Visit

    Questions to Ask on Your Visit

    Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.

    1. 01

      What is the ratio in the room my child would join, and how is every child accounted for at nap time, pickup and on the playground?

      Ratios change through the day, so they are worth counting yourself on a visit.

    2. 02

      Has the center ever been referred for legal action or put on a corrective plan, and what changed afterward?

      OEC’s files list no enforcement action in this window.

    05

    Coverage

    Record windowSeptember 1, 2011 – November 1, 2026

    • This record is OEC's list of active child care licenses as of November 2026, with the inspections, follow-up visits and investigations in OEC's files, which run from September 2011.
    • OEC's files give no correction date for a violation, so no violation in this record shows one; OEC's resolution of each inspection or investigation (a corrective action plan, a referral to its legal division) is kept with the visit.
    • Exempt child care centers (programs OEC records but does not license, such as those a public school runs) and youth camps are not in this record.
    • OEC's files give no county and no map point for a program.

    What This Report Cannot Tell You

    Correction dates
    OEC's files record the violation cited, not when it was corrected.
    Severity of violations
    OEC's files do not grade violations.
    Complaints not investigated
    Complaints OEC screened out without an investigation are not published.
    Staff qualifications and turnover
    Not part of the published licensing record.

    Historical coverage varies by agency and location. Missing records do not mean that no complaint or violation occurred.

    Data architecture: Cierto supplies the source-backed machine-readable bundle. Life by Vardell independently creates the narrative, design, and consumer report.
