Evening child care a rare option for working parents
Several parents in Frederick and Mount Airy struggle to find evening or after hours child care as most centers operate 6 or 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Some providers, like Carlene Carr of Happy Tots, offer evenings but demand remains high and few centers extend hours. Parents value family care and worry about the quality and safety of nontraditional arrangements, while providers note the intensive demand and regulatory limits.
