It's time we get #NYSUniversalChildCare
Families like mine can't wait and need childcare, for nico it would mean being in community with other kids his age which would hopefully help him w his speech delay.
Let's pay providers a living wage so we can have childcare!
I left the full time workforce when my first child was born. I'm not unique; many families are struggling under the weight of child care costs, and providers don't earn a living wage. I'm proud to be a part of the Empire State Campaign for Child Care where we're aiming for #NYSUniversalChildCare .
Child care educators — 96% women, the majority of whom are women of color – earn less than 97% of occupations statewide. They can't afford to wait another year.
Governor Hochul, we need a permanent wage fund to support our child care educators now! #NYSUniversalChildCare
Clips from our recent panel at NYS BPHA Legislative Caucus weekend. We need to compensate the child care workforce, and we need #NYSUniversalChildCare now.
If child care programs were fully staffed, over 28,000 families across our state could receive the care they need to work. Low wages for child care workers are harming NY's families and federal funds are not enough to fix it, Governor Kathy Hochul! #NYSUniversalChildCare
