Concerns about childcare staff shortages among working parents

Forced to work less because the children are at home

Moreover, according to the foundation, the parents are concerned about the quality of the care. “You can see that in the reactions of parents,” says Winsemius. SVOW regularly investigates what parents think of childcare. “In 2018 they still gave a 7.8 for day care and that is now moving towards 6.5. There are really big differences between them.” The parents are also concerned about safety due to the many staff changes and the pressure on the employees.
