A motion to be introduced by Sinn Féin calls on the Executive to provide affordable childcare as a priority. Aoife Hamilton, from the umbrella group Employers for Childcare, said Northern Ireland is at an 'immediate crisis point' regarding childcare. 'If can't get to work, this is a major issue for our economy but also for all of the sectors that we know will be priorities for the new executive - health, education, infrastructure.
' Employers for Childcare's Aoife Hamilton says a lack of a childcare strategy in Northern Ireland 'affects all of us'. Birdies Day Nursery, which is privately run and has 60 places, said the decision was made with 'unbelievable sadness'.
