Journey Discovery Center scores 90 out of 100, in the top third of Spokane Daycare. Biggest gap: Business info for Google, 10 of 15 points.
What to fix first, and why
Journey Discovery Center's structured data is missing the address and phone — and that single gap is likely why the profile doesn't appear in the map results, despite an overall local-SEO score clearly above the Spokane Daycare median. The map pack cross-checks name, address, and phone across the web; a mismatch gives Google a reason to favor a listing with cleaner data. The search preview compounds this: at 315 characters it gets cut before the pitch lands, so clicks go elsewhere even when the site does surface. Start by adding streetAddress, addressLocality, postalCode, and telephone to the LocalBusiness JSON-LD block on the homepage.

What to Fix, in Order

Most costly first. Every fix is written out in full.
Next1
The site's structured data is missing the address or phone.
The fix: Fill in streetAddress, addressLocality, postalCode, and telephone in the LocalBusiness JSON-LD block.
Why it matters · for your developer
The map pack matches name, address and phone across the web. A gap here gives Google a reason to rank a better-matched listing.
Business info for Google. LocalBusiness schema is incomplete: Address or phone is missing from the LocalBusiness schema — both are required for the local pack signal.
When there's time1
The search preview is 315 characters, longer than Google shows.
The fix: Rewrite the meta description with a concrete benefit and local keyword. Target ~150 characters.
Why it matters · for your developer
Under 70 characters says little, and past 160 it gets cut off. The preview is the pitch under the link.
Page basics. Meta description is too long (315 chars): Meta descriptions display best between 70 and 160 characters.
