The Scottish Childminding Association says that if restrictions are not removed by the time schools return full-time from 11 August, only 19% of childminding businesses believe they will still be financially viable in 12 months' time.

"At the moment, there is only critical support for key workers and parents are having to chose between a single setting, a nursery or a childminder, so people are losing families.
