Smooth daily routines and safety are important values for families.

We cannot guarantee all children a place at their local nursery, but we can make nurseries more accessible.

The drop-off and pick-up traffic at daycare centres that have been in use for a long time is not up to date and safe. There is often limited parking space in the yard, and access to the yard is almost always via a single entrance. Unfortunately, I have often witnessed dangerous situations where drivers reverse without noticing children. When children’s prams and bicycles are added to this traffic, mornings become quite dangerous. In addition, the yards lack bicycle racks where staff and children can leave their bicycles.

I propose that we assess the safety of transport to and from daycare centres and the adequacy of parking spaces, and make the necessary improvements. A smooth daily routine is in all our interests!
