One quarter of Australian kids are ‘developmentally vulnerable’ when they start school. Quality childcare can catch them up
"We know the first five years are a crucial time in a child’s life. Early experiences, such as family relationships or exposure to trauma, shape brain architecture, which lays the foundation for children’s learning, behaviour and health."
"Worryingly, a significant proportion of young Australians are not getting the positive early experiences they need. As of 2024, almost 25% of Australian children were identified as “developmentally vulnerable” by the time they start school. This means many children lack the self-regulation, thinking, language, resilience, and social skills needed for learning and getting along with their peers."
"Our research provides evidence that intervening early – well before children start school – has the potential to make a significant difference to children’s life trajectories." >

Some have also raised concerns about whether it could increase the risk of fraud, since the money would be going to individuals rather than businesses. The admin has sought to crack down on #fraud in #SocialServices programs, particularly #childcare.
The idea of paying #parents to stay home was outlined in #Project2025, the #conservative blueprint published by the #HeritageFoundation ahead of #Trump’s return to office, much of which overlaps with the admin’s #policy agenda.

About 80% of the 870,000 #families who currently get the #childcare #subsidies have #single #WorkingParents, most of them #SingleMothers, acc/to Health Department data.
The policy change would effectively create a government incentive for #married #parents to stay home with their #children, an idea embraced as part of a broader #conservative effort to advance policies that promote more mothers staying at home.

Under the draft new rule, #parents who stay home with their #children could benefit from the program, which typically provides about $9,000 per child each year, potentially reshaping which #families get #federal #childcare money.
The move could end up redirecting money away from #WorkingParents & their child care providers, causing some to raise their rates or even close, critics said, potentially worsening what many experts say is a child care crisis in the country.

The change would create the only federal subsidy to pay #parents to stay home & raise their children, one of the most significant efforts to date by the #Trump admin to harness federal funds to promote a #traditional view of #families.
To do so, officials are seeking to use a #HHS fund that was created in the 1990s to help #LowIncome & #WorkingClass parents afford #childcare so they could work or go to school.

How does Mr Trump feel about helping Americans?
President Donald Trump made these remarks during an Easter luncheon at the White House on April 1, 2026. The event was closed to the press, but a video stream of the speech was briefly broadcast live on the White House social media accounts before being taken down. During the remarks, Trump stated: "Don't send any money for daycare, because the United States can't take care of daycare. That has to be up to a state. We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We have 50 states. We […]https://quinnscommentary.net/2026/09/06/how-does-mr-trump-feel-about-helping-americans/

#Trump’s Top #Child Care Official Wants a ‘Bonfire of Regulations’
As Americans face soaring #childcare cost, Alex Adams wants to loosen rules and tighten spending. Critics say it will harm #children and close #daycares
He said Federal childcare regulations should “fit on an index card in my back pocket." Among his targets: sweeping overhaul in a generation for #HeadStart, which provides child care and #preschool to thousands of poorest children.

This new book explains why your elderly parents’ retirement home, the nursery where you drop your children, or the company that pipes water into your kitchen is taken over by an increasingly intricate and deregulated industry.
If a private equity fund is "buying something using a lot a debt, [then] all of that debt is loaded onto the company that the private equity fund has acquired."
"Private equity has moved into care homes, housing, water, nurseries and other essential services."
"We have the power for it to be done otherwise."Hettie O’Brien: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAJKiVQZaks via @oscarjiminy

"THE TRUMP REGIME is Blocking ALL Child Care Funding Nationally Over Flagrant Lies By a MAGA YouTuber
Unfortunately, thanks to Donald Trump's callous insensitivity to the welfare of others, the new year may not be so happy for all American families. He has spent the holidays in his familiar state of petulant outrage, posting dozens of hate-filled commentaries on everything from President Obama to George Clooney to anything else that triggers his tendentious temper tantrums.

#Grandparental #childcare is an important part of the #caring ecosystem for many #families in the UK.
