Department of Early Learning
The Department of Early Learning (DEL) regulates childcare providers in Washington. DEL licensors inspect childcare facilities and investigate complaints about childcare providers. Alleged violations of DEL licensing requirements can lead to the denial, suspension, or revocation of a childcare license. Even safe, nurturing, well-run childcare centers can become the subjects of adverse action by DEL.
If you have been notified that DEL is denying, suspending, or revoking your childcare license, it is important to consult with an attorney who is experienced in dealing with DEL investigations and enforcement actions. Adam Scott represents childcare providers and he can help you resolve your issue with DEL.
The Department of Early Learning (DEL) licenses childcare facilities, including:
o Child Care Centers
o Family Home Child Care
o School Age Child Care
