Women Are Often Caregivers for Aging Relatives or Grandchildren ?? As a woman estate planning attorney, I've noticed a growing trend among my female clients: many are caregivers for aging or special needs relatives or grandchildren. These remarkable women step up, not just for their own children, but for others who rely on them deeply. Some oversee their aging parents' finances or act as agents under a power of attorney, ensuring continuity of care. Yet, many haven't established their own estate plans, despite the need for a clear path should they no longer provide care. For those raising grandchildren, the stakes are high. What happens to them if you're no longer able to provide? It's crucial to designate a successor guardian and ensure your estate plan reflects their needs. Let's work together to create a plan that honors your caregiving legacy and safeguards those you cherish most. ?? #EstatePlanning #Caregivers #WomensHistoryMonth

As young(er) parents, we often hear how our parents struggled, just as much as we are, when they were raising us. In 1990-1995, the average child care cost was about $2.50 per hour. Since the 1990’s, child care costs for a single infant has increased 214%. Comparatively, wages have increased by 22%. As a family of four, we pay $3,000 each month for daycare. Our mortgage is only $1,480. Realistically, my husband and I could afford two more mortgages each month. As a country, we have reached a point where women are being forced to exit the workforce, employers are unable to operate efficiently, parents are working just to pay daycare costs, and couples are choosing to have less children (or none at all). At what point will someone realize the severity of the child care crisis. As we move towards election season, I am closely following along to see who is truly in tune with the very real struggles of the average American family. #remotework #workplaceflexibility #childcarecrisis #maternalmentalhealth

We need to focus on creating solutions for working parents who are battling the rising costs of child care. It's something that's impacting people I love (and their littles.) Let's start having more conversations about how to solve this challenge. And, if you're a daycare facility owner, I'd love to hear the challenges of operating that type of business model from your end, too.

Reaching and engaging with fathers has always been more challenging than mothers, as they are less visible to services. In this blog Colin Smy, Development Manager at Blackpool Better Start, describes the work that has been done to reach and engage fathers in Blackpool. A step the #ABetterStart Partnership took was to establish a presence in the local maternity ward, with services aimed directly at fathers. This proved to be successful, dramatically increasing the reach of dads to 47% of all parents. Read more about Blackpool Better Start’s initiative: https://lnkd.in/eafhHSsD

For #workingmoms none of this is news, but for those who aren’t in the trenches paying for childcare, you may not realize how bad it’s gotten for #workingparents. ?? We are truly in a #childcarecrisis that is not sustainable for parents, children, #childcare providers, or the economy quite frankly. This is not just a household issue, this is at its core an #economic issue that has a large ripple effect on the larger #economy. ??Facts: I have a quality and safe #daycare, but not the fanciest by any means, and I pay $34,000 a year for care for two kids. That’s over $2,800/month EVERY month and yes that’s way more than my mortgage (and the average rent). Think about what someone has to make to make that affordable after 25-30% of your pay goes to taxes, SS, health insurance (and 401k if you are lucky on top of that) I’m tired of hearing people say that “people don’t want to work” People who say that to parents have no idea the battles we face to even be able to work outside of the home. Take action. I signed the petition. Follow the link below to sign petition with me ??

We need to start thinking about this problem strategically. How can we ensure accessible high-quality child care while improving educator livelihood as well? I think a solution is very possible when we look for creative solutions at the community level.

If you're a CEO or corporate business owner and don't offer paid parental leave to your employees, you're doing it wrong. If you're a CEO or corporate business owner and think employees are covered by having the option to use unpaid FMLA, PTO, and short-term disability benefits, you're doing it wrong. If you're a CEO or corporate business owner and aren't paying attention to what childcare costs in states where your employees live and work, you're doing it wrong. If you're a CEO or corporate business owner and aren't concerned with how the #childcarecrisis may impact the well-being of your employees, you're doing it wrong. Yes, there is more to comprehensive benefits than just reproductive health and family building benefits, but 2024 is seeing more employers expanding their plans to meet employee needs and stay competitive in the recruiting market. Benefits like #PaidParentalLeave and #AdoptionLeave, #ChildcareSubsidies, #FlexibleSchedule or #Remote / #Hybrid roles, #Surrogacy and #AdoptionAssistance, and more. These benefits make employees feel welcome, supported in their workplace - improving employee engagement in the business, productivity, team dynamics and retention. Will your company be able to truthfully tout 'competitive benefits' during recruitment and hiring process? Listen to your employees, listen to the market, and watch the trends. Invest in benefits and career development to drive success for your company. #Benefits #BeyondCompensation #ParentalLeave #FamilyBuilding #ChildCare #TotalRewards #CorporateSocialResponsibility
