How a family home daycare works

Someone reported concerns to the state, and it found all 3 valid, most recently in April 2026. The state also cited rules at all 6 of its licensing inspections since April 2023.

Of the 26 Seattle-area family homes with 6 licensing inspections, 31% had rules cited at all 6, as this home did. 4% had none cited.

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.
