What’s the difference between daycare and preschool?

Are daycare expenses tax deductible?

Daycare itself isn’t deductible, but many Seattle families qualify for the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit or a Dependent Care FSA. These programs can help lower the cost of care. Learn more in our guide to daycare tax benefits.
