Context

Patterns Worth Examining

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

  1. 1

    Personnel Files, No Recorded Correction

    30U was cited in October 2026. The agency describes it this way: Personnel Files. Delaware does not publish a risk level for each citation. The October 2026 citation has no recorded correction date; its status reads “Marked corrected; no correction date recorded.” The record does not show whether the problem was fixed.

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 changed after 30U was cited, and how do you check it now?

    Personnel Files: cited in one visits, with no risk level published. The October 15, 2026 citation has no recorded correction date.

  2. 02

    What changed after 40U was cited, and how do you check it now?

    Child Files: cited in one visits, with no risk level published. The October 15, 2026 citation has no recorded correction date.

  3. 03

    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.

  4. 04

    Has the center ever been on probation or had its license suspended, and what changed afterward?

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

Coverage

Record windowNovember 1, 2021 – November 1, 2026

  • This record is OCCL's list of licensed providers as of November 2026, with the compliance reviews and investigations in OCCL's files, which run from November 2021.
  • OCCL's compliance-review file lists only visits at which it cited a regulation; a visit with nothing cited is not in it, so a program may have had more visits than this record shows.
  • OCCL's notes on each citation and its written conclusion for each investigation are left out because they can describe children and staff; the regulation cited, the correction date and each investigation's result are kept.
  • Special conditions OCCL records on a license (a variance, or that a home is also a foster home) are left out, and license-exempt care is not in OCCL's list.

What This Report Cannot Tell You

OCCL's compliance-review file lists only visits at which a regulation was cited.
Investigation conclusions
Published by OCCL but left out of this record because they can describe children and staff.
Severity of citations

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.
