Ban nurseries charging fees when closed and cap fees
We want the Government to ban nurseries charging parents childcare fees when they are closed and cap daily fees.
We feel that there are limited nursery places available, which means working parents must accept whatever the nursery dictates in their terms and conditions, even if they feel it is unfair. This includes paying for bank holidays when nurseries are closed and even general closures at nursery's discretion. We feel that childcare is so expensive that this could discourage many from working as they would be better off financially, by not working. We also want the Government to cap daily fees for private childcare so nurseries don't offset this limit by raising prices.
