Current Child Care Centre Violations

Violation Orders are issued to a child care centre licensee, an individually licensed family child care provider, or the family child care agency, when one or more legislative requirements are contravened. Family child care providers approved under the Agency licence are issued Notices of Corrective Action.

Below is a list of current Violation Orders for child care centres that have been issued within the last 90 days. These Violation Orders can also be found on individual child care centre details pages or by contacting the EDU office in your region. Violations Orders are posted on the details pages for three years before being removed. Information on Violation Orders or Notices of Corrective Action issued to family child care providers may be obtained by contacting the EDU office in your region or Family and Child Care Connections.

Please Note: Information on Violation Orders or Notices of Corrective Action issued to family child care providers that are more than three years old is available by contacting the EDU office in your region or Family and Child Care Connections.
