What’s your understanding of the childcare bubble plus nursery?

[alphasox]

DS goes to nursery 3 days a week and has 1 day with family members. Can I keep the family members as my childcare support bubble, even though he will be going to nursery too? Or do I have to chose one or the other?

It’s so complicated and unclear isn’t it?

As I understand it its fine to have both because your childcare bubble aren't looking after any other children so aren't a setting. I hope so anyway as I'm planning on using both after I go back from mat leave in the new year.

You can have both.

Your family members can only look after your child though. And you can only use one family.

Thank you!
