So if you are already doing it between you then why the angst now? No, in theory you can’t because you’re mixing households, but if you don’t have nursery places / don’t want to send them to school and their partners cannot do they childcare then you will have to.

It's less risky than nursery as less potential for mixing households.

I'm a childminder and I have key worker children coming and going, so it's no different to that in terms of crossing paths.
