What the petition asks
We believe nannies chances of employment are drastically reducing due to the 30 free hours only being offered to childminders and nursery settings, and call on the government to include registered nannies in the offer.
To include Ofsted registered nannies may benefit many professional working parents who choose a Nanny as their preferred type of childcare for practical and many other reasons.
