As a Daycare provider for over 12 years and a Mom of five kids I understand the need to offer parents the flexibility of drop in care to help them with flexible work schedule, Dr. appointments, catch up on errands, go shopping, personal needs or simply time off for entertainment knowing their kids are having a fun and positive experience in a high quality care.

After my son being suspended from his school program because they were not able to support his IEP/behavior, although many of the issues they were unable to support were what I thought to be typical 1st grader,… Zoom navigation, lack of socialization during covid and needing positive redirection, both he and I felt it was hopeless... we slowly started him with Time4Kidz as a reward system. my daughter was already attending and they had both been for drop of service before and loved it. I feel the staff has been so supportive of my family and have not made me or my son feel as if he were

My son recently started at Time4kidz in the PreK program. At first, I was little hesitant because it didn't seem they were very organized however after expressing my concerns to the director, she made sure to make things better for me and my son. I decided to give it another chance, and now he is on his second month with them. He is always happy to go to school and enjoys his time there. He comes home with a smile and proudly shows us his homework.
Also, this is a very good place to drop off your kids if you need to run last minute errands or for after school care. Conveniently located close

My daughter has been bringing my grandson here, mostly on Saturday... but this place is , according to her, a real fun place ... so much fun, when she comes to bring him home , he doesn't want to leave.
He started coming here at age 4 and he is nearing his sixth birthday.
Kudos to the owner and the assistants, who do take time to engage with the children.
I'm very thankful that this business has helped my daughter, and our special needs grandson.
Since I am a nurse, it's important to read the positive reviews about cleanliness. It's always a challenge, in

Some things never change. Especially people. Not a good place for kids with sensory problems, or who have behavioral disabilities such as autism. A lot of noise, screaming children running around, kitchen not separated by anything from the open space filled with children (who can grab whatever from the sink!), young, inexperienced staff who don't… know how to handle harder situations. My son who is non verbal and has low functioning autism was basically "kicked out" and we were forbidden to take him there again (after 4 years of going to this place), because one employee complained about

Drop in daycare for kids is hard to find. I've been here a few times, enough so that I paid in advance for a 10 hour card (more about that later).
It's located in the H-Mart shopping center between Alderwood Mall and Costco. If you need to do some shopping and don't feel like you want to drag the kids along, this is where you want to come. My granddaughter is always excited to go, always makes new friends quickly. The staff is engaged with the kids, the place is clean, and there are lots of choices for the kids. The play area is large enough that the kids have plenty of room for

Dropped my 8 and 5 year old Friday night and they were super excited to get there, so I was hopeful for a good report. (This was a big deal, since we rarely get date nights and since the first time, we ended up with a phone call saying my son was crying and wanted to go home). Despite the fact that they were together, they said it felt like way longer than an hour and a half (usually not a good thing if you are having fun). My older also told me that she tried to ask two different staff for help with the minecraft/video game setup and they were too busy talking to each other/on their phones

I wasn't thrilled that they let my 6 year old play on the gaming console for the entirety of the 4 hours he spent here. He asked to get out of that room several times but was ignored.
One of the women who works there doesn't understand any English and can't answer basic questions; so how can I expect her to talk to my kids or answer their questions?

I am so happy there is a drop in Playcare in the area. I'm a stay at home mom who needs someone to watch my toddler once in a while, but can never find an avail sitter during the day, and a regular daycare won't take him if he's not on a regular schedule with them. I have physical therapy appointments twice a week close by and am able to drop him off to play for a couple of hours. The staff is kind, the cost is reasonable, and he has so much fun here. I hope this concept catches on and more places like this open up around the Puget Sound. I will definitely be back, and will bring

Perfect for any parent out there that just needs to get out or have some alone time. Reasonable rates, friendly staff, and very clean. My son loves going here! No resorvations required, which I love because I have the freedom to make plans on the fly without the worry of scheduling a sitter. Very grateful there’s a place like this out there.

When I lived in Lynnwood this was my favorite part easy daycare. Helen and Asha the owners are great and their staff likewise. It's worth moving to Lynnwood for the daycare they provide best rates and service in Washington state. There is a Friday and sat kids night out special for kids and siblings for date night. If I ever can move back to Lynnwood or surrounding area it's great to know Time 4 kids drop in daycare and preschool program is there for all ages.

The quality of care at this place seems to vary by time of day. If you go during the day until about 2, M-F, the care is fabulous. The preschool teacher and lead drop-in teacher are very competent and friendly. However, I've had more than one mediocre experience in the evening and on weekends. The staff at those times just isn't up to par.

I took my (4yo) daughter here a couple of times, and she came back happy and in one piece. The place was clean enough and the staff seemed really nice and competent, if a bit sparse.
...but....
It really bothered me that they don't have a lock on their front door during the day. We went on one occasion in the summer and the door was even propped open. There is a separate gate to the play area, so kids escaping isn't the issue to me. However, in an old plaza in a corner of Lynnwood next to a game store, I would expect security to be top notch as you never know who might just wander

My daughter loves going here! Their rates are very reasonable, and in the three times we've now gone, she has never been distraught or anxious in spending a 2-4 hours here playing. We found this place by chance when we couldn't find a friend or family member to babysit, and we need someone to watch her for just a few hours on a Saturday. With the great experiences we had, Time4Kidz is now our first choice for babysitting needs, giving friends and family a break. It's really great to not have to plan in advance; just drop her off for a few hours and everything's fine.

Great place and super convenient for parents. The two ladies who work there are very attentive and I've seen them reading and teaching my daughter when I'd sneak in. On the first day, they didn't mind when I called in to check how my girl was doing. They seem like parents who understand the needs of other busy parents. Only down side is you can't leave your child for more than 4 hours straight. I pick up my daughter for lunch and bring her back after so it's not really a big deal. Oh and they also give complimentary snacks. I am very satisfied with the care they provide

We've dropped our 3yr old here a few times now and he always loves it. There are lots of toys and other little friends to play with but apparently (according to him) he likes playing with the lady who owns this business the most. I am very impressed as it appears the owner is very hands on with the kids and takes the time to converse and play with them. She seems to be very good with kids and my husband and I both find her very knowledgable and pleasant to talk to when picking up our son and getting the rundown of his stay there. Very personable and down to earth group of people here..no
