Gutiérrez asks Kaylee if the provider she looked into is center-based or home-based. Kaylee confirms it is center-based.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

Thank you.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

I have a couple questions, but because I do want baby Prima to.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

Just be safe and be home.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

I wanted to ask you, Kaylee, thank you so much for your beautiful testimony.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

And I think there are many New Yorkers who dream of having enough resources to put a down payment.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

For example, the provider that you mentioned where you're doing the math maybe two days a week, can you share, is this a center-based or home-based or kind of an informal care situation?

Jennifer Gutiérrez

Center-based.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

Okay.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

Okay.

Jennifer Gutiérrez

And is the two-day, because that is what works for your finances?

Member of the Public - Kaylee Iyer

Exactly, yeah.

Okay.

Okay.
