DEL Restructures Licensing Regions

This should not mean any noticeable change for licensed child care providers. 
The licensing division within the Department of Early Learning (DEL) is currently going through a reorganization of its licensing regions, in order to spread workloads more evenly. Licensing administration has decided to use a number system, as well as a description of the location of the region.  
Below is a list of the new regional names and the offices that will fall within the new regions. Please also see the map of the updated licensing regions.      
Region 1 Eastern (light blue): Yakima, Wenatchee, Tri-Cities and Spokane   
Region 2 Northwest (green): Everett, Bellingham, and Bellevue 
Region 3 Southwest (orange): Tacoma 1, 2, Olympia, and Vancouver  
Region 4 South King County (purple): Renton 1, 2, and 3   
This should not mean any noticeable change for licensed child care providers.

If you have specific questions about this change, please contact your local licensing office: Contact Us
