Hello all!

I am moving to De Moines this month and I am searching for day cares/pre-schools. This process is so difficult because here in Virginia we have a Department of Social Services website that has every day care that is licensed in VA and all of there violations and the inspectors comments. Is there any place like this on the web that I can look up Washingtons day cares? It's driving me nuts.

Good luck finding a record of that incident though. She then opened up shop under a new name but AFAIK that one shut down as well. In some ways WA seems determined to let criminals and their activities fly under the radar.

OP: Washington is a little more "wild west" than Virginia. We don't have the same strict attitude here about law and order that they do. It's an adjustment.
