Raise the salary for childcare workers in the early years sector

Petition Details

Childcare workers in the early years have one of the most important jobs in the sector as a whole. They are responsible for the early education, health and wellbeing of children under 5. A rewarding job is there ever was one however this is not reflected in their salaries.

Additional Information

The average full time childcare worker in the early years sector makes less than £1050 per month after deductions. This simply is not reflective of the love, hard work, sacrifice and determination to give the future the best possible start in life. As a childcare worker there is no greater joy than helping a child succeed at being a child and being happy, healthy and confident. But job satisfaction can only take you so far when a roof over your head is needed.
