“Paying more for childcare than rent”: Georgie Dent's story

  • Resumen

  • Georgie Dent isn’t just our host: she’s also a mum-of-three, and her firsthand experience of trying (and sometimes failing) to find suitable childcare for her daughters has taught her a lot. Like: sometimes it costs $165 per day and a 45-minute commute across town to find care for your kids.

    At times, the search for an available childcare spot will feel like a full-blown fixation. And at some point, you’ll realise that these barriers aren’t just facing you – they’re a systemic issue, and they’re leading women to step back from work in droves. In this intimate and relatable bonus episode, host Georgie Dent shares her own frank (and frankly stressful) account of how her family’s quest for childcare sparked her passion for changing the system, and how it’s shaped her work as CEO of The Parenthood.
