Childcare has always been an issue in this country for working parents and has only become more urgent and difficult to find in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Between licensing, cost, and just finding a place with available slots - it can be hard to access good, reliable childcare, especially when schools may not be open in your area. 

Dr. Danette Glassy is a Pediatrician in practice at Mercer Island Pediatrics and joins us today to talk about all things childcare, especially as we head into fall with the pandemic still raging on around us. She's here to tell us about how to find the safest childcare, what to look for in a facility and how staff can keep their care centers and kids as safe and clean as possible at this time.
