Paediatric nurse Kathryn Brown set up Nana G鈥檚 nursery in Portadown, one of the only nurseries in Northern Ireland to care for children with complex needs.

The charity Contact, which supports families with disabled children across the UK, says almost three quarters of parents who have children with additional needs are effectively 'locked out of the labour market' because of a lack of affordable, good quality childcare.

Kathryn says one of the reasons she set up the nursery was so 鈥渃hildren of all different types of needs can come together and mix in one place鈥�.

Firefighter Lisa鈥檚 two-and -a-half year-old son Shae has a cleft lip and palate and CHARGE syndrome.

She says it was 鈥渜uite hard to hand him over at first鈥� but Kathryn鈥檚 nursing background means 鈥渉e鈥檚 in excellent hands鈥�.

鈥淚t makes it easier for me to walk back out of the door and go to work.鈥�
