Arizona Child Care: Licensed Providers
Childcare Alerts indexes every licensed child care provider in Arizona from the state's open data. This report summarizes the landscape and points you to each provider's official state record. It is a factual overview, not a safety rating of any provider.
Arizona has 2,536 licensed child care providers on public record across 15 counties. Arizona's open data is a directory — the licensing and inspection history for a provider lives on the official state record, which we link to on every provider page.

Methodology & source
Providers: the Arizona Department of Health Services licensed child care roster, published as open data (ArcGIS). Childcare Alerts surfaces and summarizes these public records; the official government record always controls, and the absence of a record is not a guarantee of safety. Childcare Alerts is an independent service, not affiliated with any state agency.
