Childcare Inspections

Polk County provides annual inspections on request. You can email your request to environmentalhealth@polkcountyor.gov. 

According to Oregon Administrative Rule 414-300-0010 (8), new child care centers and certified family homes must submit floor plans to the environmental health specialist for review prior to initial construction or remodel. This review is required at the time of the initial licensing application to the Office of Child Care.
