I have a four and a half year old son, and he loves Trettin preschool. There are always new and exciting activities and projects going on for him to do, and he comes home with adorable projects that go along with the current curriculim of the week. They have a daily schedule that includes morning and afternoon story and show and tells, which he loves. Make sure your child gets to check out O-Hall, it's an indoor playground with bikes and climbers. Just wonderful.
I was welcome to come in and help him get comfortable with his new surroundings as long as I needed too, and his teachers were very helpful. I would highly recommend the preschool to anyone. It is a drop in preschool so you can use it just how you need it, on occasion or regularly, and you don't need to be on any kind of waiting list either!

Linda Stacey, owner of Careworks, does a great job matching people with childcare providers. There is a fee, but it seemed very reasonable in light of the amount of work she puts into it. I couldn't imagine doing the background checks, sorting through candidates, assessing termperament and skills, researching the proper and legal ways to compensate people, etc., that Careworks did for us. They made the process of getting a nanny much easier. I felt confident in our choice because of all of the work that Careworks did to help.

I was apprehensive to send my child to a preshool that resides inside a church (it is located within the Seventh Day Adventist Church), HOWEVER this place is awsome. Very clean, excellent teachers/assistants, and there is no religion pushing whatsoever.
Our daughter went here for more than a year and we were all sad we moved and had to find a replacement as this place was SO great!
The biggest perk are those daily walks to where else but Greenlake!

My youngest son went here when I was a student at the UW in 2003-2004. It is right across the street from the campus and the Burke Museum, so I got my coffee there every morning on the way to class. I got free parking in their lot. They take the UW Childcare subsidy, which was wonderful. Their fees are pretty low, and you can't beat the convenience. They had a GREAT staff of teachers and care providers, truly beautiful souls who loved being around kids. I felt like I hit the lottery here.
I also liked their drop-in daycare downstairs, the Trettin drop in preschool. When I needed to take my little ones up there for only a few hours after I graduated (and they weren't enrolled in the daycare anymore), this was a handy option for us. $6.50 per hour for drop in care, discounts for siblings. My kids still talk about how fun it was here.

My daughter went there for 2 years (2 mornings a week) from age 23 months - until age 2.5. Nan is really the gold standard for child care. I was a bit nervous sending my daughter at 23 months, but I quickly realized how ready she was for some additional social interaction.

I'm not sure who loves this place more me or the kid. He and I might fight the mom over the title actually. We love to just kick it here and we are always inspired to find new ways to play. We love the story times and snacks. We love the train table and tent. We love the kitchen and the cozy book readin' chair. Oh, and the toys are great too. The kid feels welcome here and that is often in short supply in some toy stores.

The Seattle Pacific University Website www.spu.edu has a classfied section. Click on childcare and you will find GREAT postings of babysitter/nannys that are available right now. You can also create a 'wanted' post with your EXACT (dates, times, children's ages, etc.) needs and you will get responses from college age sitters. I posted an ad and got many responses from great sitters as well as other parents about nanny-share opporunities. I would recommend settting up a new free (yahoo or hotmail) email account when posting an ad like this.

Located in the heart of downtown Seattle, Green Tree provides first-class childcare for working parents. I chose to put my son here because the school provides so many learning experiences for them: field trips to a variety of places in the downtown area, music classes at Soundbridge, and art classes. Their menu is totally vegetarian and the teachers are fabulous. While Green Tree is a bit on the expensive side, it is totally worth it!
