Local childcare provider calls for early years care facilities to be nationalised

A Sligo childcare provider has called for the government to nationalise early years care facilities. It's after RTE reported that almost 1000 childcare facilities have shut in the last six years according to the Department of Children. It has led to fears in the North West that early year’s care facilities may be at risk of closure. Stephanie McGarry-Pourier from La Petite Montessori in Carraroe says a similar system is in place in France:See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
