What the state has found
Someone reported a concern to the state, and in April 2025 the state found it valid. The state also cited rules at 6 of its 7 licensing inspections since June 2022.
Fewer than 20 Seattle-area family homes have had 7 licensing inspections, so there is no comparison yet.
Complaints the state found valid
Someone reported a concern. The state investigated and found reasonable cause to believe a licensing rule was broken.
Of the 404 Seattle-area family homes licensed for 7 to 11 children, 383 (95%) have no valid complaint in the last three years; 21 (5%) have one or more, as this home does.

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.
