Being immigrants who move quite a lot, we also face childcare problems here in Germany a lot. This communal childcare initiative should be widely accepted, but I guess it becomes more applicable when you are in the same place for most of your lives and know the neighborhood inside out.
That is SUCH a good point about having to continuously recreate community through immigration. It definitely is a lot easier when you stay in the same place.
I think it also applies to communities and people who are forced to move because of rising home prices or increasing rent. The history of urban planning in the US was actively a part of splitting up communities of color which had the affect of harming those community connections already there.
