About this listen
In this episode of Childcare Confidential, Jessica Hampton and Katy Denk break down the complicated world of the Child Care Development Fund (CCDF)—and the storm it’s creating for families and providers.
💸 What happens when states run out of money?
📝 Why are waitlists growing at alarming rates?
🏫 How do these funding gaps affect the providers who keep our communities going?
COVID relief dollars are gone, budgets are being slashed, and the cracks in the system are widening. Jessica and Katy cut through the jargon to show what these changes actually mean on the ground—for parents trying to work and for child care centers fighting to stay open.
🎙️ Whether you’re a provider, parent, or policymaker, this episode will give you an unfiltered look at why child care funding is at a tipping point—and what’s at stake if things don’t change.
