Help Shape the Future of Childcare in Our Community

 
Childcare is a key part of life for families, caregivers, and local employers — and we want to hear from you.  
We’re collecting input from everyone in our community to better understand needs, challenges, and opportunities for childcare. Your voice will inform planning and future efforts. Each survey is anonymous and takes about 3-5 minutes to complete.

Parents & Caregivers Survey

Parents & Caregivers: We want to hear from you.  
Childcare plays a huge role in family life, work schedules, and everyday decisions — and we know it doesn’t look the same for every family.
We’re inviting parents and caregivers to take a short, anonymous survey to share:
•What’s working  
• What’s challenging  
• What kinds of childcare options would actually help your family

Friends, Family & Informal Caregivers Survey
Do you help care for children — grandkids, relatives, or friends’ kids? This is for you.  
Many families in our community rely on friends, family members, and informal caregivers for childcare. That care is essential — and often unseen.
We’re gathering input from people who provide this kind of care to better understand:
• What it’s like day to day  
• What makes it easier — or harder  
• What kinds of support might be helpful

Employer Survey
Employers: Help us understand how childcare affects our local workforce.  
Childcare availability can influence hiring, retention, scheduling, and employee well-being — but its impact looks different across organizations and industries.
We’re inviting local employers to complete a brief survey to share:
• Whether childcare affects your workforce  
• Where challenges show up  
• What types of solutions employers might consider — or what limits participation
