  + stars: | 2023-10-12 | by ( Cork Gaines | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
The US is in a childcare crisis due to cost and lack of available teachers. The state now gives free tuition to the children of childcare teachers. However, one potential solution appears to be working, but only if governments are willing to step in and help. AdvertisementAdvertisementNPR found one example of a center offering free tuition to employees without state assistance in West Virginia. Many childcare centers may be forced to close.

Some childcare operators told Insider the end of pandemic-era funding could make the problem worse. To keep the doors open at her Southampton Township, New Jersey, childcare center, she needs to find new clients or new funding. Jackson is just one of many providers across the US entering a period of uncertainty after a pandemic-era infusion of federal childcare funding ran out at the end of last month. That funding expired on Saturday, along with $13.5 billion in childcare funding from other pandemic-era legislation. She added: "What we're likely to see is childcare providers doing everything they can to continue to operate.

☆ Childcare is about to get even more expensive at the end of September unless Congress acts
  + stars: | 2023-06-03 | by ( Jacob Zinkula | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
Federal funding helped keep more than 200,000 childcare providers afloat in recent years. Unless Congress acts, many parents could face even higher childcare costs. During the pandemic, Congress provided over $52 billion to states to support the childcare system, which helped 220,000 childcare providers stay afloat, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. "The American Rescue Plan provided critical funding that made child care available to millions of children and allowed child care programs throughout our country to stay open. Providing states additional childcare funding could be an uphill battle.

☆ It's about to get even harder to find affordable childcare
  + stars: | 2022-12-30 | by ( Jacob Zinkula | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Childcare providers may be forced to raise prices even higher to stay afloat. Childcare is going to "become even more unaffordable for the middle class families"For parents who manage to find childcare, it's likely to cost them heavily. "Now that childcare funds are going to start fading away, the cost of childcare is going to go up again and become even more unaffordable for the middle class families," she said. Declining enrollment numbers would then create yet another obstacle for childcare providers — thousands of which have already closed over the last few years. And it's not just childcare providers that would feel the pain.

A federal grand jury handed down a 30-count indictment alleging that former Robins Air Force Base day care employees Zhanay Kiana Flynn, 27, and Antanesha Mone Fritz, 29, abused children in their care in January and February 2021. The indictment charged Flynn, Fritz and former day care director Latona Mae Lambert, 51, with one count each of failing to report suspected child abuse. “Properly caring for our Airmen and their families is of utmost importance," a spokesperson for Robins Air Force Base said in a statement. We are fully supporting the ongoing investigation and reviewing processes to ensure the appropriate measures are in place to safeguard our children.”An investigation into the allegations is ongoing by the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations and Air Force Security Forces, with support from the FBI, according to the Justice Department. According to the Department of Defense, child care centers on military bases are randomly inspected at least four times a year and receive accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children or a similar body.
