From daycare to summer camps, after-school care to sick day backups, the expenses add up fast. And it’s not just about dollars — it’s also about time, energy, and career decisions that affect long-term financial outcomes.
👶 They unpack key questions like:
- How much does childcare really cost?
- What hidden expenses often catch families off guard?
- How do two-career households juggle finances, time, and mental load?
