Rejected petition Nursery’s closing leaving no adequate provision of care for children birth to 11

To review childcare provision , costs - currently private nursery’s charge a small fortune , they also do not provide adequate care for children at primary school level as not cost effective or there’s no requirement. As a working parent family what do we do when our child has school holidays

More details

I would like a review, childcare in European countries has a better provision, we are at the mercy of private childcare providers that charge a lot and also it appears that due to cost of living increases are now shutting doors and closing down , leaving working parents facing further stresses on mental health and also financial well being, no alternative but to review whether to work and help keep roof over head of family , food on table and if we can heat homes

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure whether you'd like a review into the cost of childcare, the availability of childcare, or something else.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
