We went to some of the day cares Nick Shirley did. Here’s what we found.
Some of the 10 day cares conservative influencer Nick Shirley blasted for having “no children” invited reporters in to see for themselves.
The video has rocked the entire day care community in Minnesota. On Dec. 30, the Trump administration declared that it was freezing child care funds to Minnesota and demanding an audit of some day care centers partly in response to the claims made by Shirley.
Those funds, which help poor parents pay for child care while working, are a lifeblood for many day cares.
