KinderCare Applauds New York’s Historic Investments in Child CareJune 5, 2026 8:25 AM
Business Wire State’s expansion of Universal Pre-K and broader investments in child care align with KinderCare’s mission to increase access to high-quality early childhood education and care for families who need it most Key takeaways: KinderCare applauds New York’s $1.7 billion investment in child care and early learning, which expands access to affordable, high-quality programs for children and families across the state. KinderCare helps deliver publicly funded early learning programs through its 35 New York programs, making high-quality child care more accessible to working families. New York’s investments in Universal Pre-K, child care assistance and early learning programs will help hundreds of thousands of children access high-quality education and care. KinderCare supports policies that increase child care affordability, strengthen workforce participation and expand access to high-quality early childhood education. KinderCare is the nation’s leading provider of early childhood education and care, serving families through a nationwide network of high-quality child care centers. KinderCare Learning Companies, Inc. (NYSE: KLC) (“KinderCare”), the nation’s leading provider of high-quality early childhood education and care, congratulates New York Governor Kathy Hochul and state legislators on their decision to invest $1.7 billion in the state’s early childhood education programs, ensuring that hundreds of thousands of children across New York have access to affordable, high-quality child care. The $1.7 billion will support affordable, accessible child care through several programs. $561 million will go toward New York’s public prekindergarten (Pre-K) with the goal of offering public Pre-K to all four-year-olds by Fall 2028; $1.2 billion will expand the child care assistance program (CCAP) subsidy program, a 40% increase in funding; $278 million will go toward New York City’s 3-K and 2-K programs, expanding access to high-quality care for families with young children, and $66 million to expand child care access in rural counties for children 0-3. The investment comes as families continue to face significant child care challenges. According to KinderCare’s recent KinderCare Confidence Index, 75% of working parents know someone who has left the workforce because of child care issues, while more than one-quarter have either left or considered leaving their own job due to child care challenges. Half of working parents report missing work because of disruptions in child care arrangements. “New York is making a significant investment in children, families, and the future of its workforce,” said Tom Wyatt, Chairman and CEO of KinderCare Learning Companies. “Expanding access to high-quality early learning gives more children the opportunity to thrive and helps working families find the care they need.

KinderCare Celebrates Teachers with Child Care Tuition SupportMay 4, 2026 8:37 AM
Business Wire
Teachers and staff at districts with a Champions before- or after-school program are eligible for child care tuition support at KinderCare Learning Centers nationwide


Key takeaways:


This Teacher Appreciation Week, KinderCare is offering teachers and district staff at its Champions sites 10% off child care tuition at KinderCare Learning Centers.



KinderCare operates before- and after-school Champions programs at 1,153 elementary schools nationwide.



Starting today, all teachers and staff in any district Champions operates in qualify for 10% off child care tuition at KinderCare Learning Centers.



The discount applies to all staff district-wide, even if Champions only operates in select schools within the district.



The discount doesn’t expire, so families can use it year-round.



KinderCare Learning Companies, Inc. (NYSE: KLC) (“KinderCare”), the nation’s leading provider of high-quality early childhood education and care, is celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week with a special thank you to K-12 teachers and district staff. KinderCare will offer staff and teachers at any school district that its before- and after-school brand Champions operates in with a tuition benefit of 10% off child care at any KinderCare Learning Center (KCLC).


“Teachers are the heart of what we do every day and play a critical role in a child’s academic success and access to high-quality, affordable child care is critical to any working parent’s life,” said Dan Figurski, President of KinderCare for Employers and Champions. “We work with more than 700 employers around the country to provide their employees with child care benefits. This Teacher Appreciation Week we’re extending that support to the teachers and staff in all of the school districts we have Champions programs in. It’s our way of saying thank you for being part of our Champions family.”


Every staff member at schools and districts in which Champions operates can qualify for the child care benefit, not just teachers. The offer is valid at KCLCs nationwide and has no expiration date, so families can use it year-round.


According to a recent report from Moms First, nine in 10 parents report workforce disruption due to child care challenges and 80% of workers have jobs, like teaching, that cannot be easily automated. When teachers or other school employees lack reliable child care, they often have no choice but to take a day off work to care for their children. According to KinderCare data, working parents increasingly view child care not as a perk, but as essential infrastructure. In fact, 85% of all working parents say child care benefits should be treated as essential, like health and retirement benefits. Child care benefits, like the one KinderCare is offering, help alleviate those stresses and ensure working parents in foundational roles can continue to work.


"Teachers are foundational workers. They are the backbone of our communities, and like so many working parents, they can't do their jobs from home. When their own child care falls apart, the ripple effects reach every student and family they serve,” said Molly Day, Chief Operating Officer, Moms First. “Our recent Foundational Workers Report found that child care disruptions cost U.S. businesses $70 billion a year, and every child care investment we studied delivered a positive return on investment. KinderCare is showing other employers what real leadership looks like. By extending this benefit to teachers and district staff, they are treating child care for what it is: a workforce strategy."


KinderCare Learning Centers provides safe, nurturing care for children ages 6 weeks to 12-years-old in neighborhoods across the country. KinderCare classrooms are led by teachers who show up every day ready to help children build skills for their next big step.


K-12 teachers and district staff can learn more about this benefit online.

Child Care Access Key to Improving Parent Mental Health, According to New ResearchMay 1, 2026 8:21 AM
Business Wire
New report from KinderCare highlights positive impact consistent, high-quality child care can have on helping parents avoid burnout


Key takeaways:



KinderCare research shows child care access is a critical driver of parent well-being and workforce stability. Parents report spending more than one-third of each month burned out, with child care challenges as a leading cause.



KinderCare identifies child care gaps as a primary source of stress for modern families. 81% of parents say they are constantly thinking about disruptions in care, reinforcing the need for consistent, reliable solutions.



KinderCare data underscores the importance of high-quality child care on parents’ mental health. 60% of parents say parenting pressures are harming their mental health, highlighting child care as essential infrastructure for families.



KinderCare highlights the confidence-building impact of high-quality early childhood education. 88% of parents say access to quality child care makes them more confident as parents.



KinderCare recognizes high-quality child care is a fundamental need, not a luxury. 86% of parents agree it should be treated as essential for families and the economy.



As a national leader, KinderCare delivers flexible, high-quality child care solutions at scale. Through community-based centers, school partnerships, and employer-sponsored programs, KinderCare supports families wherever they need care.



Raising children has always come with stress, though pressures on today’s parents are particularly high, to the point where parents report spending more than one-third of every month in complete burnout, according to new data from KinderCare Learning Companies, Inc. (NYSE: KLC) (“KinderCare”). Findings from the seventh annual KinderCare Confidence Index, conducted with The Harris Poll, reveal that the key to reducing parental burnout and improving the mental health of parents across the country lies in access to consistent, high-quality child care.


The KinderCare Confidence Index is one of the nation’s largest annual studies examining how child care access impacts working parents and employers.


Parent burnout is rising and largely driven by child care instability


Working parents in the U.S. reported spending more than one-third of every month in complete burnout, with 60% saying rising parenting pressures are harming their mental health. The majority of parents feel like they’re on their own, with 76% feeling extremely frustrated by the lack of child care support offered to parents in the U.S.


A major contributor to parent stress and burnout is the challenge of finding consistent, high-quality child care. 81% of parents reported they are constantly thinking about child care gaps. This is especially true for parents with children who are under age five, who are more likely to report finding reliable child care challenging as children in that age range require more hands-on care than school-age children typically do.


Recent data from Moms First show that these child care gaps have a direct economic impact as well. Their study found that 90% of parents report a workforce disruption due to child care challenges. These disruptions cost U.S. businesses up to $70 billion in lost productivity, turnover, and absenteeism annually.


Access to high-quality child care improves parent mental health, workforce stability


Nearly all (88%) of parents agreed: Quality child care gives them more confidence as a parent. Access to consistent, high-quality child care can have a direct, and positive, impact on a parent’s mental health as well as their ability to participate in the workforce. The majority of parents (86%) also believe high-quality child care should be considered a basic need, not a luxury and many are turning to their employers for support.


KinderCare works with more than 700 employers around the country to provide their employees with child care benefits, from care on or near site to a parent’s workplace to tuition benefits that can be utilized at KinderCare programs around the country.


“Child care has a direct economic impact both on employers and on society. When a parent misses work because of a lack of child care, the impact goes beyond the family to their entire work team, and that has an impact on an organization’s productivity. That’s why child care benefits are such a vital aspect of employee retention and engagement. When employers support parents, everyone benefits,” said Dan Figurski, President of KinderCare for Employers and Champions. “We’re proud to work with organizations around the country to offer a variety of child care options that support families wherever they need care, whether in their communities, at their local schools, or at their workplace.”

Methodology


This survey was conducted online within the United States by The Harris Poll on behalf of KinderCare from November 5, 2025, to November 13, 2025, among 2,509 parents with children age 12 and younger. Within the sample we surveyed 1,056 parents with children age 5 and under, and 1,453 with children age 6-12. The presentation represents a national sample; we then looked at the data cut by the following demographics: age, race/ethnicity, gender, income, region, and employment status. This online survey is not based on a probability sample and therefore no estimate of theoretical sampling error can be calculated.
