A designated working space where parents can bring their young children has helped moms who pull double duty with work and child care.
The COVID-19 pandemic ushered in a new era of remote work, and while the shift has been a blessing for millions, it comes with its own unique challenges. Working mothers, for example, often find themselves pulling double duty with their jobs and child care.
Fairfield Area Public Library near Richmond, Virginia, provides a special space for parents of small children. "At home it's impossible," kindergarten teacher T'keiah Woodson told CBS News."Here, I can kind of, like, turn my head for a second, finish up paperwork, respond to emails and just get things done without the worry of her crawling away."
Woodson said the library's designated area for working parents makes things"much, much easier. And they're close enough where I can just reach over, but I can still do what I need to do on the computer.
