Or, hear me out here, fix the economy so that people don't need between 2 and 3 incomes per household to survive.
On the childcare side of things just increasing wages would end up increasing wealth inequity if childcare isn't heavily subsidized. The fact is, for a safe adult:child ratio in a daycare each child has to pay for about 1/4 of a teacher
You're not wrong, and I'm not against massively subsidizing it. In fact I think we should do both. My point is that childcare places wouldn't be so overwhelmed if we could have a stay at home parent.
