What working parents and carers say...

"When you are in a position of needing emergency childcare it is an added stress on top of everything else you have to deal with. This service removes that stress completely and I have complete confidence that my little lad will have quality care at short notice and for the times that I need it. These days, when it is so difficult to sort out the simplest thing by phone it seems, it is so refreshing to have helpful, friendly people on the end of a phone line instantly taking all the hassle off your shoulders. A wonderful service."

"By the time I called I was in real need of emergency childcare provision. Within an hour we had a nursery place confirmed and paid for. My husband and I were able to maintain our working commitments safe in the knowledge the children were happily spening the days in the lovely nursery. We cannot thank you enough."

"Great solution that puts your mind at rest. I thought it was going to be more expensive than our usual child care but the team found us a great childminder who turned out to be a 1/3 of the price of our normal care, and childminder was perfect with our 9 month old son. She texted an update during the day and gave us a full report of the fun and walks they had been on at the end of the day."

"The process was straightforward and seamless. My employer didn't even have to know about the emergency as we were able to stick a normal routine despite our regular childcare falling through. This makes a big difference to me as I hate to be a "problem" employee."

"This is an invaluable benefit to working parents. For any unexpected events or family situations where you need access to Childcare but for whatever reason don't have the support in place at that time, Emergency Childcare is an ideal solution. We have used the same Nursery as our daughter uses regularly, so there is no disruption in terms of carers, something which is important to us."

"I now look forward to school holidays, as before I use to stress out in January looking for the year ahead trying to juggle my holidays to fit around school and husbands shifts. Work+Family Space helps allows me to keep my holidays to spend valueble time with the family."
