Tough Topics

We at Upwards are working on a potential press article about the impact of the childcare cliff, the end of the pandemic-era childcare funding.

Has a daycare center closed or have you experienced longer than usual wait times due to the childcare cliff?

If you a parent affected by the childcare cliff, we'd love to hear from you.

Please leave a comment to this post and we'd love to reach out to you to learn more.

My son was born premature and suffered from Acid Reflux really bad. This is such a scary thing to witness in your baby. The 2nd hospital performed the Fundoplication surgery to fix the problem. He has been good ever since. I am sharing my story because the first hospital would not run the necessary test or perform the surgery. I also worked with a lady who had an 11 year old who was finally diagnosed with Acid Reflux Disease. But after 11 years, the disease caused a lot more damage to his stomach. As parents, we sometimes have to keep pushing until we get the right answers and treatment for our children.

My son has been at the same daycare since 2 years old. He's almost 4, and potty training has been difficult for me. I'll start training at home and see progress at home. But is back in diapers when he goes to daycare, I don't seem to get much help from the daycare even though they say they do provide potty training, but I don't see it happening although I have told them before he is already training at home, I love my daycare provider and so does my child but potty training has become an issue. Should I change him to another daycare because of this? I don't know what to do
