Who We Are
Mission
Sound Child Care Solutions (SCCS) is the first early learning shared services consortium in Seattle, WA comprised of preschool and school age programs with an emphasis on the foundational years of 0-5. What does that mean? We are one 501(c)3 organization that operates 8 child care centers in King County, sharing administrative services in a central office. Each center maintains their own name and identity to best represent their communities served. ​
​
SCCS's core work is to alleviate the academic and opportunity gaps between children who receive high quality education, and those who don't-primarily families of color and families experiencing financial insecurity. SCCS works alongside our community empowering educators to foster connection, collaboration, and mutual growth.

Join Us
Joining the SCCS consortium empowers Directors to shift many of their burdensome administrative duties to the Central Office in order to better support teachers and provide high quality programming for children and families. The staff at the central office serve as the Directors' support team managing benefits administration, payroll, accounts payable, liability insurance, center budgeting, financial reporting with strategic advising, contracts management, IT consulting, and much more.
