Emergency preparation and exitingSerious. Fix within 5 business days. The licensor rechecks within 10.
“The licensor observed an unrolled hose positioned in front of a sliding door that is designated as an exit. The placement of the hose was noted as both a potential obstruction to the egress path and a tripping hazard, which could impede quick and safe evacuation in the event of an emergency and increase the risk of injury to children or adults moving through the area. The licensor identified this as a safety concern and emphasized the importance of keeping all exit routes clear, unobstructed, and free from tripping hazards at all times. The provider was advised to relocate the hose and ensure that emergency exits remain fully accessible and safe.”

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.

Small means the smallest quarter of Seattle-area’s 1,532 licensed family homes by state-licensed capacity: 3 to 6 children. Mid-size is 7 to 11; 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.
