I’m not sure what changed but I decided to try some code I’d been working with previously and it has decided to work today (aggravating but I’ll take what I can get). For anyone in a similar boat, this is what I did:

<?php query_posts(array(
        'post_type' => 'sponsor',
        'showposts' => -1,
		'meta_key' => 'child_info_child_idnum',
		'orderby' => 'meta_value',
		'order' => 'ASC',
    	'post_status' => 'publish'));

			if ( have_posts() ) :?>
				
				<ul id="spo_kids">
					<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); 

						if( have_rows('child_info') ): 
					?>

								<ul>

										<?php while( have_rows('child_info') ): the_row(); 								$child_image = get_sub_field('child_picture');
 ?>

															<li>
																<div>

																		<img src="<?php echo esc_url( $child_image['url'] ); ?>" alt="<?php echo esc_attr( $child_image['alt'] ); ?>" />
																	<?php echo '<h5>';
																		echo the_title();
																		echo '</h5>';

																		echo '<span class="c-dob">';
																			echo 'DOB: ';

																				if ( get_sub_field('birthday') ):
																					echo the_sub_field('birthday');
																				else: echo 'Unknown'; endif; 

																		echo '</span>';

																		if ( get_sub_field('date_verified') ):
																			echo '<span class="c-verified">';
																				echo 'Verified: ';
																				echo the_sub_field('date_verified');
																			echo '</span>';
																		else: endif;

																	?>
																				<a class="spo-links" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>#spo_form" />
																					<?php if ( get_sub_field('currently_sponsored') == 'Special Need' ): ?>
																						Special Need
																					<?php else: ?>
																						Sponsor Now
																					<?php endif; ?>
																				</a>
																				<a class="spo-links" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" />Learn More</a>
																</div>
															</li>

										<?php endwhile; ?>

								</ul>

<?php endif; endwhile; endif; ?>
