In this episode we meet Sofia, someone who has provided child care in Los Angeles for over 13 years. She has a history of taking care of infants who she has seen grow into young teens. Her commitment as a Family, Friend, and Neighbor (FFN) care provider demonstrates how her loving long-term emotional and physical care shows up in the children’s well-being for years to come. Sofia’s first language is Spanish and she often finds herself teaching the kids the language. She also discusses how despite the hard work, child care workers are often underpaid, although she knows the families love and appreciate her.
