inspection reports
DCYF's Child Care Check shows a rolling three-year window of inspections (its Inspections table is headed 'The following inspection(s) have been completed from [date] till the current day', a date about three years back). An inspection older than that window is not listed here because DCYF does not display it, not because none occurred.

License or certificate type
Licensed
DCYF publishes this as the type of license or certificate it issued, not as an open or closed status, and only LICENSED means DCYF licensed the provider (see statusVocabulary).
Provider ID
1588179
DCYF publishes no description of this column; it is the number the agency's own Child Care Check page labels 'Provider ID', and it is not the differently formatted 'License Number: PL-nnnnn' that page also shows.
Facility type
Child Care Center
DCYF's own description names Home = Family Home Child Care as a possible value, but no Family Home row appears in this file; the published values are Child Care Center, School-Age Program and Outdoor Nature Based Program.
Licensed capacity
35
Ages served
2 years 5 months - 13 years 0 months
DCYF publishes the minimum and maximum age as two separate columns; this pairs them in the format the agency's own Child Care Check page prints under 'Ages:'.
Initial license date
August 29, 2019
DCYF publishes no description of this column; it is republished under the agency's own column name.
Latest license start date
August 29, 2019
DCYF publishes no description of this column; it is republished under the agency's own column name.
License expiration date
Not published
DCYF issues initial or nonexpiring center licenses, so most published rows carry no expiration date and the page shows 'Not published' for them.
Address
1428 - 22nd Avenue, Longview, WA 98632
The regulated physical address, as DCYF publishes it; the mailing address columns in the same file are not published here.

Doing business as
Not published
Shown on the rows where DCYF publishes a doing-business-as name different from the licensed name.
Early Achievers participation
Enrolled
Early Achievers is DCYF's quality rating and improvement system; this file records only whether DCYF has the provider enrolled in it, and DCYF publishes no definition of the Enrolled and Not Enrolled values themselves.
Early Achievers rating
5
DCYF rates providers at levels 2 through 5 (and the value '3+', which DCYF does not define); it is a quality rating, not an inspection or a compliance finding.
Operating status
Active
DCYF defines this column nowhere we could find, and a row's Active or Not Active value can lag the agency's own portal, so check the official record for the current status.

About these records

These records come from the Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF), Licensing Division database and carry the inspection history the state publishes. Records synced from the agency on September 7, 2026. They reflect the agency's database as of that date; recent inspections may not appear yet, so verify current status with the agency or on the official record ↗. Facility operators can request a review through our corrections process.

Display only: where the agency publishes a value in all capitals (a facility name, operation type, license status, activity type, county or street) we show it in title case, and we reformat dates and ZIP codes into a single house style. No agency value is otherwise changed, shortened or reworded, and the official record linked above is always the authority on how the agency itself prints it.
