I am a single mum to a 3 year old who's at nursery 3 days a week. His dad isn't involved at all. I work 3 days a week when hes at nursery and the night before my son stops at my mums house and she takes him to nursery the next morning. I work at the hospital and shifts start at 7 so I cant do the nursery drop off.
South yorkshire has been put on the Tier 2 list.
It says paid childcare can stay open etc.
Is my mum still allowed to have him over night and do the nursery drop off as I'm classed as a key worker? Is she classed as co-parenting with me? Or can he not go to her house meaning I can't go to work at the hospital?
Tier 2 says no mixing households indoors.
I'm abit confused! |

I'm in a local lockdown area in Wales and although mixing households indoors is technically banned, it is still permitted for childcare, although they advise the child moves between properties rather than the adult. I don't know what the rules are in England but basically if it is your only option, you have no other choice regardless of rules xx |

You can form a support bubble still with your mum so you act as one household: that’s what they’re for. You just can’t then form a support bubble with another person x |

Just carry on doing what your doing, your not out partying and carrying on, life’s fucking hard enough without stressing yourself out. Keep up the good work both at home and the hospital  |

All I would say is think about who is in the risk catagory, a lot of people use family members for childcare which is fine, but what if those family members are elderly or are valnerable. I'm not suggesting you OP but there are a lot of people I know still putting relatives at risk especially children spreading the virus and showing no symptoms.
The childcare situation is a problem for many, there is no easy answer. |

My son and daughter in law have to take to their daughter to be looked after as they work full time so have no choice really
But that’s classed as a family bubble and nothing has been mentioned about that |

If your child is under 14 there is an exemption where that is necessary for caring purposes.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock said people looking after children under 14 or vulnerable adults would be exempt. |

As I understood it (and forgive my ignorance) childcare can continue (as people need to work and keep the economy going) I believe unpaid childcare can continue.(if not, just give the unpaid carer a quid and then it is paid childcare!) |
