Working just doesn't pay the bills
The majority of Montessori schools in my surrounding area do not take school children for after-care those that do charge €7 an hour. If this is my only option, I will be paying €192.50 a week for part-time care.
I earn €19,500 annually and the majority of my income goes to paying my daughter's fees. I have rung everywhere to see if there is any available aftercare service and it appears that there is not, nor am I entitled to any allowance for her because I am earning too much.
