The Vienne ADMR network, headquartered in Chasseneuil, plans to extend its services to home childcare for parents with atypical working hours. The project is being finalized and should concern the Poitiers-Châtellerault axis this year.
For almost a year now, Nathalie Collec and her team have been working on an unprecedented project within the ADMR network in Vienne: the development of a home childcare service in order to provide an answer to what first been identified as a constraint for network employees and a barrier to recruitment. However, the problem goes far beyond the personal services sector. It concerns all parents with atypical hours, early in the morning or late in the evening. “Finding solutions for these parents means removing obstacles to employment, promoting equality between men and women and offering employees a certain level of working comfort. Perhaps also to retain them, notes the director of the ADMR’s childhood, parenting and disability support service. But it is particularly difficult to bring out the needs because either people working atypical hours manage, or they even give up working”.
To carry out this “ambitious project”, the ADMR, already under recruitment pressure, prospected for new human resources, among “students, extracurricular animators, who are not always full-time, training organizations in Early Childhood CAP but also people in combined employment and retirement…” The idea being to work in concert with the municipalities and other partners to “offer full time”.
Training included
“We have also planned training, especially for the care of children under 3 years old”, slips Nathalie Collec. The creation of content is underway, in conjunction with partners such as the Inclusion Support and Resource Center (Pari) or Maternal and Child Protection (PMI). The training will be offered at the ADMR training center, at the Futuroscope Technopole, and will include simulations. They will be provided by social and family intervention technicians. “The ADMR is little identified as intervening with families, more with seniors. The Social and Family Intervention Technicians (TISF), currently 19 in number, are however “specialized in the culture of the family unit”.
The system will first be tested on the Poitiers-Châtellerault axis, “because we know that there are both employees with atypical hours and the student resource”, specifies Nathalie Collec. Fund for family allowances, municipalities, intermunicipalities, Department, State, companies, calls for projects, the ADMR intends to knock on all doors to finance this initiative impossible to quantify upstream. The only certainty: “This service should be financially accessible to all, with an hourly rate that will not exceed €3. »
