How this service works
Monitor Texas childcare regulatory records and receive email alerts when important HHSC information changes.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the regulatory decision (e.g. AUTHORITATIVE_REGULATORY_RECORD_FOUND), the official operation name, operation status (Y/N), any adverse action text, and any corrective action text, sourced directly from the Texas HHSC. Also includes a pointer to a change-monitoring upgrade option.
Example use cases
Parent vetting a new daycare
“Before I enroll my kid, can you pull the Texas HHSC regulatory record for Little Explorers Learning Center in Austin and tell me if they have any violations, adverse actions, or corrective orders on file?”
Background check for a nanny agency
“We need to verify the current HHSC status for Sunshine Kids Academy in Dallas — are they actively licensed and do they have any adverse or corrective actions showing up in the regulatory record?”
Ongoing compliance monitoring for a childcare network
“Check the Texas HHSC regulatory record for Rainbow Bridge Childcare in San Antonio and let me know if anything has changed — specifically their operation status or any new adverse or corrective actions.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://pennyregwatch.com/v1/regulatory/tx/childcare/checkWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you specifically need current Texas HHSC regulatory status for a childcare facility by name, without needing an HHSC ID. It is ideal for parents, compliance teams, or automated monitoring workflows that need authoritative state regulatory data rather than crowd-sourced or review-based information. The optional city parameter makes it practical for resolving name ambiguity across Texas.
Side effects
- Facility name not found in HHSC records — ambiguous or misspelled name may return no match
- Multiple facilities share the same name — city parameter needed to disambiguate
- HHSC data temporarily unavailable — upstream source outage
- Facility is unlicensed or not registered with HHSC — no record returned
- Rate limiting or payment failure for the $0.02 USDC per call charge
