Frequently asked questions about Seattle daycares

How much does daycare cost in Seattle, WA?

Daycare prices in Seattle vary by your child's age, the type of program, and the neighborhood. Infant daycare typically costs more than toddler or preschool programs. On UrbanSitter, you can compare pricing for daycares in Seattle and filter by budget to find an option that fits your family.

How can I choose the right daycare in Seattle, WA?

UrbanSitter lets you compare options side by side, see which daycares have open spots, and join waitlists for programs you love.

Do daycares offer part-time or drop-in care in Seattle?

Some providers offer part-time daycare and drop-in daycare for same-day needs. UrbanSitter helps you see which Seattle daycares offer part-time care and which locations support drop-in options so you can find a match for your schedule.

What's the difference between daycare and preschool?

Daycare programs typically support infants, toddlers, and preschool-age children with full- or part-time schedules. Preschool programs usually have a more structured, education-focused curriculum. You can learn more in our guide, Is preschool the same as daycare?

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.

What age is best to start daycare?

Families start daycare at different ages depending on availability, budget, and personal preference. Experts generally recommend choosing the age that aligns with your child's developmental needs. Explore common starting ages in our guide on the best and worst ages to start daycare.
