Poll: How about WINZ and OSCAR funded weekend childcare facilities?

Donna from Roslyn - Terrace End

I am a single parent struggling on a benefit. I meet employers interested in giving me a job but so far 100% of them have wanted weekend work as well. I don't have access to free family babysitters and I'm not going to pay a babysitter all my minimum wage. I'm guessing other single parents and some couples have this road block to. Isn't it about time day cares and places like the YMCA are open 7 days?
