Inspection frequency
Licensed and registered programs are inspected at least once during each licensing period (typically every two years). Unannounced inspections can occur at any time. Complaint investigations are conducted as warranted. New York City programs are regulated by the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and may follow a different inspection schedule.
Background checks
All prospective operators, employees, and volunteers must undergo a comprehensive background check that includes fingerprinting for an FBI and New York State criminal history search, a check of the Statewide Central Register of Child Abuse and Maltreatment (SCR), and a Sex Offender Registry check.
Parent rights
Parents and guardians have the right to visit their child's childcare program at any time without advance notice during the program's operating hours. All inspection reports and enforcement actions are public records and can be requested from OCFS or accessed online.
How to use this page
