polyamorous family
  • Taya Hartless is a member of a polyamorous family.
  • The family has three incomes and zero childcare costs.
  • In the face of the US's childcare shortage, this model is helping her family thrive.

As American parents are struggling to find and afford childcare, one family is using a non-traditional model to get by. 

Taya Hartless's family has a ratio of one parent per child. But she's not a single mom, nor does she have two children with her partner.
