Details

Full-size means licensed for 12 children, the most any Seattle-area family home holds; 735 of Seattle-area’s 1,532 licensed family homes are. Small is 3 to 6; mid-size is 7 to 11.

The ages on the license are what the state licenses it to care for, which can be wider than the ages it takes.
