The government’s plan to establish government-owned daycares aims to alleviate the financial burden on young mothers who are struggling to find employment due to the high cost of childcare.

The initiative focuses on supporting vulnerable young women by providing affordable childcare services, enabling them to pursue job opportunities that align with their skills and qualifications.

The government intends to target densely populated areas with lower incomes to ensure that the subsidized daycare services reach those who need them the most.

By implementing this plan, the administration hopes to empower young mothers to enter the workforce without worrying about the prohibitive cost of childcare.

This initiative reflects the government’s commitment to supporting women in the workforce and addressing the challenges young mothers face.
