A solution is coming soon for parents whose children cannot attend daycare, yet still have to pay their regular fees.

The Department of Education has been working on the details of a daycare compensation package and those details are expected to be released in the next day or so.

Early Childhood Educators are worried about income, while a growing number of parents have been asking questions about paying fees for a service they cannot avail of.

In some cases parents are paying double, having to find a babysitter for their children because they must work.
