Majority of childcare providers unhappy with state funding, survey finds
The new funding system saw €259m and €287m pumped into the sector in 2022 and 2023 respectively.
More than eight out of 10 childcare providers are unhappy with the Government’s core funding system for the sector, with a majority saying it has made their businesses unviable, according to a survey.
The survey, conducted amongst 810 childcare providers nationally, found that almost two-thirds of the businesses are considering leaving the system.
