Child Care Licensing  


        Online Complaint Process
Please read all of the following information before proceeding.

1. It is important for you to complete all sections of this form so your complaint can be fully evaluated. If a particular section does not apply to your situation, simply write "N/A" (not applicable) in the space.

2. Your complaint will be treated as confidential. Under the law, complaints concerning the violation of Utah's licensing laws are not public information.

3. If you wish to contact the Child Care Licensing Program by phone, please call (801) 584-8294.  Licensing hours are Monday through Friday (except legal holidays) from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time.

4. Please be advised that the Child Care Licensing Program will not act as your attorney for purposes of settling, recovering monetary loss, or performing any other dispute resolution between you and the facility you feel may have violated Utah's Child Care Licensing rules.

5. The Child Care Licensing Program cannot perform investigations for the benefit of your personal litigation. However, your complaint is very important to Child Care Licensing because it informs us of possible violations of the licensing rules. Public complaints are valuable in helping to correct health and safety violations in child care facilities that are unlicensed or otherwise in violation of Utah law. All complaints are given very careful attention.

6. Once your complaint is reviewed, you may be contacted by someone from Child Care Licensing if more information is needed.
