Coverage

Record windowMay 4, 1998 – 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.
