Do you struggle to access care for your children?

Do you struggle to access care for your children? (e.g. daycare, family daycare, preschool, after school care, holiday programs). Is childcare really hard to access? What impact does it have on you? Complete our super quick, 2-question poll!

We need two seconds of your time if you're a regional, rural, or remote parent.

We hear that childcare can be excruciatingly hard to access in the regions, but we need to know - is this actually true? And what impact does it have on you? Let us know so we can advocate for better early learning access for all regional, rural, and remote communities.

This September, we'll release a comprehensive report on the negative impacts of inadequate childcare. We want to hear from you!

Please take our quick, 2-question poll to share your experiences. Take our poll here!
