This 𧡠on the lengths parents have had to go in a bid to try and find suitable early learning and care so they can attempt to make a living to support their children is π€―π€―π€― It's US-centric but the story in Australia is very similar. #OzEarlyEd #ParentsUp
Sometimes I feel like the world is divided btw people who've spent some portion of their life desperately revolving around trying to get expensive childcare & personally solving for catastrophic publicly policy failures & the people who literally have no idea this is going on
And we're also thrilled that @stevebaty2 will attend on behalf of the @AustDems
#Wentworth #AusVotes22 #OzEarlyEd #ParentsUp

"We're amongst the most educated women in the world," @EconomistAnge said. "But when it comes to economic participation, we actually dropped to 70th in the world and we're going backwards relative to the rest of the world."

I never tire of seeing members of @the_parenthood out & about in the media. Today Patti, Joseph & Zali are in the @couriermail talking about the high cost of childcare which means even with two full-time working parents it's hard to save.

Time for a quick temperature check! We're halfway through the official #AusVotes22 campaign & we're asking our community where they're at.
This quick survey will take less than a minute. Promise!

"We need to improve wages and conditions for early childhood educators in Australia," says our ED @georgiedent in @TheTodayShow. If you agree sign our petition here: https://t.co/j6NFzEBzhv #ParentsUp #auspol
Coming up on @TheTodayShow at 8.40am to talk about the other major crisis in early learning & care: Early educators walking away in droves.
Without early educators there is no early education. Kids are missing out and more will if this isnβt addressed.
#ParentsUp
NEXT STEPS.
1. Sign the #ParentsUp petition & spread the word.
2. Ask your local candidates & parties what they're going to do about it!
3. Remind everyone that #WomenVote
(Yep, I'm being demanding. Nope, not sorry.) https://t.co/9lb8fMQ0Pe #AusVotes22
I chatted to @sparkes_david on PM about the wild & unsustainable fact that out-of-pocket costs for early education & care are up almost 15% in 3 years.
The price of petrol *pales* compared to childcare.
https://t.co/lfCJon281o #AusVotes22 #ParentsUp
It's not sustainable. It holds the economy back, limits employment, compromises the development & education of children & creates & entrenches economic insecurity for women.
It's not working! #AusVotes2022 is an opportunity for change. #WomenVote #ParentsUp #Vote4Parents
THIS! This is the kind of insanity families are dealing with & it's only getting worse with inflation, fee hikes, limited wage growth
π€―π€―π€―
Join @the_parenthood's campaign to make early learning & care radically more affordable!

When you add in the fact the CPI figures show out of pocket child care fees (so what parents pay AFTER any subsidy) have increased by 14.7% since May 2019 it's a legitimate cost-of-living-nightmare. Families going backwards.

ACTU president @MicheleONeilAU says soaring inflation rate means average worker will cop a real pay cut of nearly $2000 in the first half of 2022, nearly 4 times more than Morrison government projected in budget. "This is the worst real pay cut for working people this century.β
Can't help but notice one of our favourite 'C' words came up a fair bit when @Mamamia asked 5000 women what they want. CHILDREN. (And more affordable early childhood education and care!)
#AusVotes22
#ParentsUp
#WomenVote
So @Mamamia surveyed 5000 women about #AusVotes22 Here's a snapshot of what 60 women around the country said they want from the next government.
Saving the planet. Kindness. Respect. Meaningful change. Representation. Among the key themes!

'When childcare fees increase faster than the subsidy, who benefits? Sadly, it's not children, educators or families,' @georgiedent tells @JennaPrice https://t.co/46SRCDEPoD #ParentsUp
NB. If any politician talks about job creation today please ask when they'll make high quality, early childhood education and care free.
It is The Dream Job-Creating Policy Of All Time. True story!
#ParentsUp #AusVotes22
We're on!
The 21st of May is our opportunity to shape Australia's future. It is time to elect politicians who will prioritise children, families & women.
#AusVotes #ParentsUp
We have 6 more weeks to put Paid Parental Leave and Early Childhood Education and Care on the national agenda. If you're sick of the current systems and want to see change, join our campaign and let's make change happen! https://t.co/j6NFzEB1rX #auspol
Investing in making quality early learning & care radically more affordable for families is brilliant policy regardless of party lines ... it is genuinely perplexing that any politician or party would avoid it! #ParentsUp https://t.co/9lb8fN73Re
Endorsements coming from unexpected places with Liberal Premier, Dominic Perrottet backing Laborβs child care plan for more affordable early learning and care that will make 96 per cent of families in the system better off. Canβt blame him. #auspol
This is the reality families in Oz are up against and it's not good enough. It's time for totally affordable childcare & decent paid parental leave. If you agree and are up for being a legend like Patti join @the_parenthood! #ParentsUp https://t.co/9lb8fN73Re
