Navigating Childcare Challenges
The transition to finding suitable childcare has been a significant challenge for the family, particularly as the pandemic has exacerbated existing issues. Living in a growing suburb of Nashville limited the availability of daycare spots, resulting in stress and disorganization during the initial months after the birth of the second child. While the family managed through the assistance of relatives, the inability to secure daycare left them feeling overwhelmed and unproductive. Ultimately, finding a daycare 25 miles away provided some relief, but also presented new logistical hurdles that needed to be navigated daily.
