More than half of parents say the stress of juggling after school care is having a ‘negative’ impact on their career.
Findings from a survey of 2,000 parents in the UK by Koru Kids highlights the impact a lack of available wrap-a-round care in the UK is having on parents.
When asked how accessing wrap-a-round care is having a negative impact on their career:
- Six in 10 (60 per cent) parents said that they are always tired.
- Nearly two in five (36 per cent) feel they are constantly behind on their work (61 per cent of mums compared to 58 per cent of dads).
- A third (28 per cent) feel that others are more likely to get promoted as a result of them being more productive.
