Have you had trouble finding childcare in SLO County? We want to hear from you
When the San Luis Coastal school district considered cutting its transitional kindergarten program last year, parents expressed concerns about how they would secure childcare with less than a year’s notice, if the program was indeed canceled.
Luckily for those families, the district kept its transitional kindergarten for at least another year — but there are still others struggling to find reliable childcare on a budget in SLO County.
As part of its Parents Central series, The Tribune is looking into the availability and affordability of childcare on the Central Coast and how it affects working families. If you’ve had trouble finding or paying for childcare locally and want to participate in our coverage, please provide your name and contact and any additional comments using our form.
