About

OUR STORY

A Seattle daycare built by parents, for parents

Shawna Smits, co-owner of Cosmopolitan Kids daycare in Seattle

Shawna Smits

Co-Owner

Twenty-five years ago, Stephanie was searching for childcare for her own children and couldn't find the kind of warm, thoughtful care she wanted for her family. Together, she and Shawna decided to build it. Several years later, Shawna's adopted daughter was also a Cosmopolitan Kid!

What started as a small daycare in Seattle has grown into the community it is today. It's still locally owned and guided by the same idea that inspired them from the beginning: a place where children grow, explore, and truly feel like they belong.
