Childcare costs too much and the state wants my disabled above the knee amputee husband to return to work to even be able to have healthcare. Our daughter is 3 I can’t afford to pay $2400 a month for childcare… so my husband is staying home to help offset that cost… while I work my butt off to try to stay afloat… Beginning of 2023 when my husband got sick we lost 3/4 of our income and then inflation hit… I work as much as I can at my main job and then I take care of my family at home and then I have my photography business that I tried to start 3 months before my husband got sick but I only brought in 38,000 this year… and with my husband losing his insurance with the coming of this next year he is losing IRIS so I will be losing caregiver compensation so my family is going to be losing $1200 a month… so I am hugely stressed right now… especially on how I am even just going to be able to keep a roof over my families heads when that is literally what I pay for rent every month… but we make too much to get help but also don’t make enough to get any help.
Lacey supported: Improve Family Support: Mandated Maternity/Paternity Leave and Lower Child Care Costs
I’m a single parent household that gets denied for every type of government assistance because my income is too high for my household (which only includes my daughter and myself. However my income is lower than the state and national average income. Inflation has made it very tough for me to afford monthly necessities which includes child care. Having that additional funding for daycares and parents would be a tremendous relief during this time.
Ashley supported: Advocate for Increased DECAL Funding to Strengthen Childcare in Georgia
Education requires much and that includes funding. Funding is vital for our daycares and early learning. If we do not have the funding it limits our resources a great deal. Daycares are the foundation to learning and we need to be equipped physically, mentally, and financially to effectively invest in the development of the little lives entrusted to our care.

I am a single mother that is paying childcare of $200 weekly and my check is only 500. This bill will help tremendously
