I am a mother of three. Over the years, our family has relied on daycare, preschool, nannies, babysitters, and even the childcare center at our local gym. Each was the right fit for a different season of life.

Our family’s experience isn’t unique. We are among the millions of American parents who understand, intimately, that there is no single childcare arrangement that’s right for every family.
