A record year for Fortune 500 Women CEOs! This year 44 women are running Fortune 500 companies, up from 41 last year. It's certainly progress, but only 8.8% of the largest companies are women-led. There is still much more work to be done. fortune.com/2022/05/23/fem…

@Megan_Leonhardt Thank you for highlighting the lived reality of childcare providers. I'd love to share how home-based care supports providers making a living wage. I'll email you @Megan_Leonhardt!

16,000 childcare providers shut down in the pandemic. That’s a really big deal for American families who may face higher costs and businesses struggling to find workers fortune.com/2022/02/09/chi…

Do you have a child in #daycare? Has it become prohibitively expensive for your family? I'd love to talk to you for a @FortuneMagazine story! DMs are open

On the 10th day of having at least one of my kids home from school, I invented a game called "baby." The parent rests on the couch and pretends to be a baby and the kid has to take care of you. Every once in a while, cry or say "mama" but otherwise, just rest. My kids LOVED it.

Child care is simply not working, for both families and providers. Home daycare addresses the supply-side issue of childcare, while also empowering providers to become financially independent. @anya1anya and @NPR show us the dire need for solutions in child care.

Parents and caregivers of kids under 5 — who are too young to be vaccinated — are in a special kind of hell right now. There are nonstop quarantines. Confusing health guidance. Not enough rapid tests. And too few substitute teachers. n.pr/3rAwq75

As a working mom, I always feel a bit frazzled, but after 2 years of pandemic parenting I am completely burnt out. For @SheKnows I looked at #pandemicparenting by the numbers & it's not just me (or you!) We are struggling, but there's also hope: tinyurl.com/2dnbasp5

Imagine a world where working moms could find affordable, quality childcare in their neighborhoods. Solving the childcare crisis is one step to supporting working moms. Thanks @ravensnook for putting numbers behind the reality of pandemic parenting!👏
