Context

Patterns Worth Examining

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

  1. 1

    Staffing- Supervision, Cited in Seven Visits

    OEC licensing staff cited 19a-79-4a(c) in February 2019, March 2020, March 2020, November 2021, August 2022, February 2023 and July 2023. The agency describes it this way: Staffing- Supervision. Connecticut does not publish a risk level for each violation. OEC does not publish when a violation was corrected, so it is worth asking what changed after each one.

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

OEC's files do not grade violations.
Complaints not investigated

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