Our Sycamore childcare offers a tuition-based 7:30 to 5:30, full day childcare program Monday through Friday.
BabY Program (Roly Polys)
Fremont Community School (FCS) recognizes that parents must often return to work soon after giving birth, and in Seattle this is especially true. FCS established its baby program to meet the needs of full time working parents and to offer their children the most loving, supportive atmosphere. We believe the first three years of life are the most critical for the developing human being. At no other time during a person’s life is there such rapid growth and learning and our program is carefully created to nurture the babies in its care in a gentle, warm environment.
While the Department of Early Learning mandates the ratio of babies to teachers as 4:1, we feel that there are times when babies need more caretakers, so we often strive to maintain a 1:3 ratio.
When you step into our baby room you will immediately notice the soft colors, the calm and soothing voices, and the natural materials we use; all of this helps babies to feel safe and secure. Love is essential to all humans. Babies need to feel loved and supported as they transition from home to daycare and we want our families to know that they can leave their children with us and feel 100% secure.

Toddler Program (waddlers, ladybugs, and chickadees)
Toddlers, ages 12 to 36 months, are wonderful, creative, and extremely busy little beings. Everything around them needs to be explored, tasted and tried out. Children in this age group need to be in an environment that allows them free access to do their exploration in the safest possible way. Our toddler classrooms were created so that the children feel this freedom and teachers know they are there to help them learn new physical and social skills.
FCS is committed to getting our toddlers outside as much as possible, rain or shine. We love that this age group has the chance to splash in a warm summer puddle or watch the autumn leaves tumble down. The great outdoors in our fully fenced yard creates a playground that is both safe and natural. Stretching our muscles, feeling the rain, and smelling the flowers feed the senses of the young children and teach them on every level.
