Like most parents, our listener is trying to find a balance between working from home and taking care of her baby. Her child attended an in-home daycare until it was shut down because of the pandemic.

Our listener is torn because the daycare just reopened. She doesn’t want to send her child due to the possible exposure to COVID-19. But if she doesn’t she will still have to pay. What should she do?
