“The Licensor observed that the food handler certificate had expired as of 01/2026. The Licensor advised that a valid and current food handler certification must be maintained at all times when preparing, handling, or serving food in a child care setting. This requirement is essential to ensure that food is handled safely and in accordance with public health standards, reducing the risk of foodborne illness and ensuring the health and safety of all children in care. The Licensor recommended that the provider renew the certification immediately and maintain documentation of current compliance in the facility records.”
WAC 110-300-0106(12)
“The Licensor observed that a 6-month-old infant was placed in a pack and play containing assorted toys and the infant’s bottle. The Licensor advised that the sleep/play space must remain clear of all additional items, including toys, bottles, and any loose materials, during sleep or rest periods. These items present potential hazards such as suffocation, entanglement, and obstruction of breathing. Bottles should not be left in the sleep area due to choking risks and to support safe sleep practices. (Corrections made)”

Mid-size means licensed for 7 to 11 children, among Seattle-area’s 1,532 licensed family homes by state-licensed capacity. Small is 3 to 6; full-size is 12, the most any Seattle-area family home holds.
The ages on the license are what the state licenses it to care for, which can be wider than the ages it takes.
