Shortlist replaces people’s names in the state’s text with initials. This is done by rule, not by hand, so it can miss a name or shorten a word that isn’t one. The state’s report, linked on each row, has the original.

Details

Small means the smallest quarter of Seattle-area’s 859 licensed centers by state-licensed capacity: 6 to 40 children. Medium is 41 to 114; large is 115 to 323.

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