BENTONVILLE, Ark., Sept. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Heartland Forward's latest report, Child Care Policy Efficiency: What States Can Do to Promote Affordable, Accessible High-Quality Child Care, assesses the landscape of the inefficient U.S. child care market and makes specific recommendations for states to improve child care outcomes. Accessible and affordable child care is crucial to the U.S. labor market as it allows parents – particularly mothers, to participate in the workforce, and it is essential for early childhood cognitive development for children. Unfortunately, the private market has been unable to provide accessible and affordable child care that focuses on quality early childhood education.

Key Points: 
  • With more than three million children slated to lose child care by the end of 2023, the time is now for states, employers and philanthropy to take decisive action on improving child care outcomes

  • Unfortunately, the private market has been unable to provide accessible and affordable child care that focuses on quality early childhood education.
  • Heartland Forward proposes the following solutions:
    For states to improve outcomes, a first step is to consider redirecting child care funding by:
    allowing Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funding for child care; this is associated with better overall child care outcomes
    States cannot achieve an improved status on subsidies alone.
  • Even in the best-funded states, only about one in four children is served by the child care subsidy program, whereas in the least well-funded states, it's about one in 17.

Being the main breadwinner didn't necessarily keep married mums in work during the pandemic

Our study, published in the Journal of Marriage and Family, involved analysis of 7,139 different-sex married parents in the United States, captured at multiple time points.

Key Points: 
  • Our study, published in the Journal of Marriage and Family, involved analysis of 7,139 different-sex married parents in the United States, captured at multiple time points.
  • We found many married mothers who earned half or more of the family’s income got knocked out of employment during the first 18 months of the pandemic.
  • Our study also found the ability to work remotely was an important lifeline for mothers to retain employment.

Even earning more, many mothers were knocked out of employment

    • The employment rate for mothers, by contrast, dropped significantly in the first few months and never fully recovered.
    • So, earning more of the family income didn’t necessarily shield mothers from employment loss.
    • Mothers who could work online had significantly higher employment rates across the period of our study than mothers who couldn’t.
    • Additionally, the positive effect of telecommuting on employment was four times larger for mothers than for fathers.

The pandemic-pummelled mothers

    • At the start of the pandemic, our previous research found nearly 250,000 more mothers than fathers exited employment from February to April 2020.
    • We also found in prior studies that US mothers with children aged five or under reduced their work time four to five times more than equivalent fathers.
    • And our earlier research revealed how US mothers stepped into more housework and childcare, causing sleep problems, anxiety and stress.

Where to from here?

    • But we can’t ignore the fact many mothers stepped into the added care of the pandemic while also trying to maintain their work lives.
    • Australian workers want remote work to remain which has long been critical to mothers maintaining employment and to avoid burnout.
    • The pandemic showed care work is critical to our lives and we must support those who do it.
