A change around subsidies 'won't cover nannies in the home', one childminder has said.

New Government subsidies for childminders will not cover nannies who come to work in people's homes.

"I think something we need to make clear, which is very confusing for a lot of people when they're talking about childminding, [is] it's only people who are self-employed," she said."If you're minding in a parents house - one of the children's houses - you're actually classed as a nanny. "There is different definitions for both: a nanny works in the parents household, they usually just mind one family, and it's up to those parents to be employers to that person.

"As a Tusla-registered minder, I know that Tusla can turn up on my doorstep at any time and inspect my house.Ms Ryan said some of the regulations stood out to her on her last inspection.
