Closed Review hourly fee from Government to local authorities for childcare providers

Closed on

We would like the Government to review the current hourly fee the Government gives to local authorities for childcare providers.

We feel we childcare providers are underpaid for this age group. Resources may be expensive to educate this age range, to prepare them for school. We feel we are underpaid by the Government.
Some childminders are now refusing to keep children on once they turn 3yrs, as they feel the pay is too low.
