Fathers turn passion into day care care for kids
The piece profiles three fathers embracing nontraditional roles as primary caregivers. Shupert runs a home day care near 22nd Street and Clinton Parkway with two assistants, serving about a dozen children while guiding them in outdoor play and original songs. Kennicott balances art and teaching duties at Prairie Moon Waldorf School while prioritizing time with his sons Sedgiku and Sebiyam. His wife supports the arrangement as he pursues professorship dreams, finding fulfillment in parenting as his life’s work.
