To announce that they are closing the room DS is attending with immediate effect. No advance notice or indication. Just a brief note about staffing challenges, recruitment issues and how sorry they are.
I'm really sorry childcare providers are struggling I really am because of the shitty circumstances they are left in.
I don't know what to expect from this thread apart from getting it off my chest. I wish we had a bit more notice to at least to get into waiting lists, organize our meetings with DH, cancel our medical appointments etc.

How awful. Sounds like someone has quit without notice and they were already tight. The sector is in a complete mess unfortunately.

Or was sacked

Oh my gosh, I know it's struggling as a sector but that little notice really isn't on is it? Hope you manage to sort something!

Yeah. I'm really trying not to be pissed off as I understand anything might have happened and things are tough.

Oh shit, I'm so sorry OP. That must be such a massive logistical nightmare and you must feel sad too for your DS, suddenly losing the adults he's formed an attachment too. 😪

It's outrageous the way early years (like so many other things) has been chronically underfunded in this country.

I’m sure you’re employer will understand as that’s completely out of your control bless you
