I am getting one-parent family payment but this year money's tight as I pay €30/week for a 4 day week, 2 1/2 hours a day preschool fee for my youngest daughter.
She really loves it and it is making her way more confident and less clingy (she used to cry whenever she saw a man, go ask her father why). I don't get maintenance as her father is (supposedly) not working, on disability (even though this doesn't stop him bashing women!).
Does anyone know if there is an allowance for pre-school?
I am at the limit with my credit card and have to use up all my savings to pay it off!
