Based on the information given, the amount of her child and dependent care expense credit will be $7000.

It should be noted that the enhanced credit of 2021 allows the eligible parents to claim up to 50% of the child care expenses paid.

In this Shyla paid $14000 as her child care expenses for her children in 2021. Therefore, the the amount of her child and dependent care expense credit will be calculated thus:

= $14000 × 50%

= $7000.
