Federation of Early Childhood Providers set to protest outside the Dáil on Tuesday
Of those that are closing a number are, like the one in the Oireachtas, expected to do so for just Tuesday rather than the three days called for by the FECP.
“Our team working with children do amazing work every day, yet due to increasing costs and limited funding, they are leaving the sector that they love due to burnout and low salary. The Federation says many providers are closing their doors permanently due to the financial strain but the Department of Children disputes this, pointing to Tusla figures which, it says, shows declining rates of closures and the fact that only a handful of providers seek to avail of particular supports available to those in financial difficulty.
