Dive into the heart of America's childcare crisis with No One Is Coming to Save Us, hosted by veteran reporter Gloria Riviera. In Season 5, you’ll hear stories about everyday people rolling up their sleeves to demand better childcare in America, whether it’s guaranteeing access for all kids ages zero to five, creating supportive services for families, or ensuring the highest quality education possible. The goal? A unified roadmap that gives us the language, knowledge, and power to advocate for the system our kids deserve  – whether that’s at the ballot box, the PTA meeting or in conversation with our community leaders.

Send Us A Voice Memo

People are going to space for fun, yet building a supportive child care system can seem impossible. What gives? In this episode, we’re looking at the work of Neighborhood Villages, an organization that's spent nearly a decade creating the blueprint and putting into action what a truly supportive child care looks like – one that values kids and caregivers alike. From providing material goods like coats and diapers to supporting kids’ development through relational health, they’re proving that a supportive child care system isn't just achievable, it's long overdue.

Make Child Care Supportive

Finding child care is too often a maze of confusion and financial strain. Families struggle to secure a spot, navigate different options, and afford care – if they can find it at all. In this episode, we talk to Professor of Public Policy at Harvard University Jeff Liebman, to break down the root causes of the child care crisis, and we hear from listeners about the ripple effects all of this has on families nationwide. Then, we imagine what a better system could look like – one that works for all families, not just the lucky few.

Make Child Care Accessible

High-quality child care isn’t about fancy buildings or high-tech gadgets - it’s about relationships. Meaningful connections between caregivers and children create the foundation for great early education, no matter the setting. In this episode, we talk to early childhood expert Junlei Li to explore what truly defines high-quality early learning, the many places where children can experience it, and why paying teachers like teachers is key to sustaining quality care. We also visit a home child care in Juneau, Alaska, where exceptional early education is happening every day.
