IF YOU ARE AN ESSENTIAL WORKER LOOKING FOR CARE PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING FROM THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION.

If essential workers do not have access to childcare through your own networks

If essential workers are unable to access childcare they may use one of three licenced home-based childcare providers. The Government has worked with PORSE, Edubase – Home Grown Kids & Kids at Home, and Barnardos to provide in home care to the children (aged 0-14) of essential workers. They would be subject to the same Public Health rules as set out above.
