Very similar challenges for childcare providers who are struggling with ever increasing costs & may have no option but to increase fees for parents or risk going out of business. Significant & ambitious investment needed that recognises early learning & childcare as a public good

As noted by @EFCCG @HamiltonAoife constantly. The lack of political direction & policy vacuum means that not only are parents struggling with the cost of childcare - but providers are in crisis. More and more will close as costs rise.
Parenting Week 2022 is here! Our Chief Executive Charlene Brooks explains how you can ‘Appreciate and Value’ parents and get involved in Parenting Week this year. Check out what's on 👉 buff.ly/3EwANIt #ParentingWeek

We support the Childcare for All call to invest in early education & childcare as a priority & essential public good #AE2022 Read why here tinyurl.com/hae7wyky @EFCCG
Ahead of #AE2022 we are urging all political parties to ensure investment in #childcare & a new #childcareStrategy is a day one priority for a new Executive – children, parents, providers & our economy can’t afford to wait any longer! @wrda @EFCCG tinyurl.com/hae7wyky
We have all waited long enough for a childcare strategy and provision in NI. So many women, either needing access to childcare or working in the sector, have raised this as one of the main barriers to gender equality in NI. Ahead of #AE2022 and this #IWD2022 I hope our MLAs act!

We wholeheartedly support this call for investment in #Childcare and a new #ChildcareStategy for NI. The pandemic showed the absolute importance of childcare to children, families, providers and the economy. #Childcare must be a number one priority for #AE2022

How do you use childcare & how has Covid-19 changed this? Take the #nichildcaresurvey & you could win a £100 voucher. Survey will inform new Childcare Strategy so we need HUGE response from parents & childcare providers bit.ly/3xPPSOj #BelfastHour #SocialMediaSavvy
The Childcare Support Fund has provided a lifeline for many childcare providers, but this shows the importance of a Childcare Strategy and long term investment for our critical childcare sector #childcare
Frustrating to see the closure of this vital childcare service. We support their call for MLAs to prioritise a childcare strategy & investment for this essential sector or we could see more closures, parents unable to access childcare & a rise in poverty bit.ly/3yz3GO9
It is so disappointing to see the closure of this vital childcare service in Ardmonagh Family Centre. The childcare sector needs to be given adequate investment NOW before more closures take place. Childcare workers are essential - it is time this was recognised by @ExecOfficeNI
