The child care industry has long been in crisis, and COVID-19 only made things worse. Now affordable, quality care is even more challenging to find, and staff are not paid enough to stay in the field. Reporter Tania Thorne knows this crisis first-hand. With three young kids and a full-time job, she's dealing the best she can. In this series, she meets people each struggling with their own childcare issues, and the providers struggling to get by.
