Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me please I am not sure if i am posting on the right bit i wasn't sure where to post so I do apologies in advance.
Basically my OH works but i dont I am a stay at home mum and 12 weeks pregnant with our second. We cant get 2 year funding as we arent on benefits and he earns around £17000 with overtime. I managed to get creche for 6 weeks one day a week for 2 hours through my health visitor. My local childrens centre have got an offer on for 3 hours its £5 pounds so we are going that 3 days a week thats while its the school holidays but after that my son is going to be back to square one. He is delayed with his speech and the creche want to refer him for speech therapy which I am completely fine with and would like that to happen. But I want to know could we get any funding because of his delayed speech? I have read a few things on google where some people got funding when there children were delayed at speech but the health visitor is basically not helpful at all.
I was wondering if there's any way we can get some help? I even tried do volunteering at the children's center so he can get some creche/nursery and also it would do me good to but i cant even do that. Apologies if its on the wrong bit of the forum. Thank you :o
I forgot to put he will be 3 in December so he gets the 3 year funding in January anyway but i just want to try get something from September until December as he loves going the creche and I do think its helped. And they obviously think he is not talking how he should be as they are referring him for speech therapy. I am also asking about some courses when I go next week at the children's center but they are not really of anything of interest as they are maths English which i did last year doing an online course and I just feel like I am getting no where.
