However, as a consequence of
young mothers being required to work,
infants may be placed in
child care at a very early age,
and mothers often require a patchwork of solutions, some of which may be substandard.40 Quality
child care and early childhood education are extremely important
for the promotion of cognitive
and socioemotional development of
infants and toddlers.41 Yet,
child care may cost as much as housing in most areas of the United States, 25 % of the budget of a family with 2
children,
and infant care can cost as much as college.42 Many working families benefit from the dependent
care tax credit
for the cost of
child care, allowing those families to place their
children in a certified or higher - quality environment.43 However, working families who do not have sufficient income to pay taxes are not able to realize this support
for their
children, because the credit is not refundable or paid to families before taxation.44 Therefore, some of the most at - risk
children who might benefit from high - quality early childhood education are not eligible
for financial support.
