Anna's Childcare Development Center, Inc.

Anna's Childcare Development Center, Inc., a woman-owned, minority-owned (Black American-owned) small business based in Lakewood, Washington, operates exclusively as a sub-recipient on federal grant awards, delivering child nutrition program support through the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service. The vendor has no prime federal contract or grant awards and holds no seats on government-wide vehicles or IDIQs.

Anna's Childcare operates entirely within a single federal grant program. All ten sub-awards in the source span the period from October 2023 through September 2024 and flow through a single prime recipient, the Washington Superintendent of Public Instruction. Each award provides reimbursement and administrative support for child nutrition programs. The combined value of all awards stands at $64 thousand, representing modest grant sub-award activity. Activity has grown from four awards in 2023 to six in 2024, though the dollar magnitude remains small relative to typical federal contracting or larger grant recipients.

The vendor's customer concentration is absolute: 100% of recorded awards fund Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service programs. This narrow focus reflects the sub-recipient structure — Anna's Childcare participates in child nutrition reimbursement and administration passing through the state education agency, rather than competing for direct prime awards or maintaining presence across multiple federal grant programs or agencies. The vendor has no federal contract footprint, no IDIQ or GWAC positions, and no subcontractor relationships on prime contracts in the source data. The set-aside posture — woman-owned small business (WOSB) and minority-owned business — is characteristic of the entity type registered in SAM but does not alter the sub-recipient operational model; these designations do not typically influence federal grant sub-award selection in the same way they structure competitive set-asides for federal procurement.

Anna's Childcare Development Center should be evaluated as a specialized operator within child nutrition support networks dependent on state education agency administration rather than as a direct federal contractor or broad-based federal prime recipient.
