T This study is motivated by the increasing demand for childcare services (daycare) as a solution for working parents. however, weak supervision has raised various issues, despite the fact that children, as a vulnerable group, are entitled to proper protection, care, and education. the state and local governments bear the responsibility of ensuring these rights. in the city of depok, the supervision of daycare services is regulated by regional regulation no. 15 of 2013 concerning the implementation of a child-friendly city, which mandates the government to provide supporting facilities for children\\\'s development. this regulation also refers to law no. 23 of 2014 concerning regional government, which grants authority to regional governments to regulate and supervise non-formal education, including daycare services. this research examines whether the supervision of daycare services aligns with regional regulation no. 15 of 2013 and analyzes the mechanism of administrative sanctions imposed on daycare providers who violate the regulation. the study employs a normative juridical approach with a descriptive analytical method, using secondary data as the primary source and primary data as supporting material. the data are analyzed qualitatively with deductive reasoning. the findings indicate that the supervision carried out by the depok city government has not fully complied with regional regulation no. 15 of 2013 due to limitations in supervisory personnel, the absence of specific programs, and weak inter-institutional coordination. furthermore, the mechanism for imposing administrative sanctions has not been implemented optimally due to technical and structural constraints. the study concludes that there is a need to strengthen supervision, licensing procedures, and the active role of local government in the management of daycare services.
