Stirling Council needs to think again about stopping Killin Nursery offering places for 0-2 year olds. Rural communities are fighting the cuts!

Front page of @StirObserver today. Baby Ivy met @chriswkane yesterday too as her Mum has no childcare.

Yesterday @chriswkane made it clear we weren't getting our baby room back. Today @EvelynTweedSNP raised the issue in Parliament.

A message from Killin for @chriswkane as two of our concerned residents meet with him today in @StirlingCouncil offices.

Using SIMD for budget decisions ignores differences btwn urban & rural deprivation. It doesn't show poor access to services, higher fuel costs, lack of well paid jobs/affordable housing. You need to assess things differently @StirlingCouncil @chriswkane

Women can't return to work after maternity leave as there's no nursery <30 miles that offers places for 0-2 year olds. Rurality needs to be considered when making budget cuts @StirlingCouncil @chriswkane. You're saving £50k but killing our community.

Recipe for burnout: 1) remove nursery provision, 2) mix in rural isolation and the hope of working from home, 3) add one toddler who is about to learn to crawl, walk and puke on your paperwork. @StirlingCouncil @chriswkane @evelyntweedSNP @AStewartClark @PregnantScrewed

Well deserved by Killin Nursery. Shame @StirlingCouncil don't value it though. #reversethecuts.
Four nurseries across the Stirling area have been praised by @CareInspect for delivering the very best outcomes for children. It comes as #Stirling was named best place in Scotland for families seeking excellent childcare in a survey by @thetimes. ➡️

This is nuts. @StirlingCouncil are cutting our nursery but then will have to bring it back again next year (for 1 year olds at least)? @PregnantScrewed @chriswkane @MrMcEnaney @NatalieDon_

The Plan sets out how we will embed the benefits of Scottish Government's transformational investment in 1140 hours of high quality funded Early Learning and Childcare. It also explains our approach...

Again with the childminders argument. Where are these childminders coming from exactly? We have none and we would need at least 3 to replace current nursery provision for 0-2 year olds. Seems unlikely. This simply isn't a viable alternative!

Yes! Not just our nursery but our whole community under threat due to @StirlingCouncil budget cuts. Appreciate @MrMcEnaney coming too Killin to talk to residents. Still waiting for @chriswkane to respond to our request to do likewise.
The village of Killin is at risk of losing childcare services for 0-2 year olds following a council decision to completely end the provision. I visited last week to find out what that means for families and for the community itself.

We need entrepreneurs but nursery budget cuts aren't helping @StirlingCouncil - save a few quid now but there'll be a big price to pay later. @JennyGilruth @EvelynTweedSNP @chriswkane @PregnantScrewed @ruralpreneurs @ScotBusinessUK
