The Children's Center at Burke Gilman Gardens

Hi friends, we have (3) FREE cubby units (approx 48"Hx48"Wx12"D) that are currently outside TCC and up for grabs! They're in good shape and perfect for families with multiple kiddos (or one kiddo with lots of stuff). Feel free to share if you know someone who could use them!

Governor Bob Ferguson signed a proclamation declaring May 8, 2026 as Provider Appreciation Day! In recognition, DCYF would like to take a moment to celebrate the important work that our early learning and child care providers do each and every day.
