Check Child Care Facility Licensing History

Colorado Shines allows you to look up child care facilities throughout Colorado. You can search for child care facilities by address, zip code, city, or provider name. You can also find detailed reports of each child care provider and request an email or in-person file review for up to five providers by calling 303-866-6029 or emailing cdec_pbfr@state.co.us.

Universal Preschool (UPK) Colorado
Universal Preschool (UPK) Colorado allows families to choose the right setting for their child, whether it is in a licensed community-based, school-based or home-based preschool setting. Families of children in the year before they are eligible for kindergarten, and qualifying 3-year-olds, are able to apply for UPK Colorado.
