Well technically childminder. He’s just turned 1.
I technically am self employed in food production but haven’t been doing much business lately. (Think of it as a cake maker from home)
Now the contract goes if I take my son out for illness then I still have to pay. If the childminder shuts then I don’t have to pay.
She’s saying because I work in food production he can still come in.
But I don’t necessarily want him to because it’s not essential for fighting COVID-19. I don’t feel comfortable travelling on 4 buses a day getting there and back. And I don’t want to get in trouble for him being in childcare when he shouldn’t.
But also being self employed, I’m unable to get stock at the moment so can’t do any orders, so can’t afford £600 of childcare each month till this calms down. So what do I do? She’s a lovely lady, and I don’t want her to not be able to pay bills, but i need to pay mine too. And currently there is very little help for self employed people during this crisis.
