Amy is calling for local politicians to step up and provide some meaningful support, so more businesses can manage during this time of rising costs.
Some baby swimming classes in Belfast have been paused as rising costs mean the pool can't be heated to a suitable temperature.
"Unfortunately due to the increasing rising costs in energy costs, the pool have been forced to stop heating the pool to a suitable temperature for our little ones. Lots of swimming classes for babies and young children take place in specifically heated pools, which are typically 30C to 32C. "Even with the announcement of the price caps throughout England, Scotland or Wales, we don't know if or when that's going to be rolled out here. If businesses could even be given a date the way Great Britain has been told energy prices will be capped from October 1st, that would make a massive difference."We're a recovering business from Covid.
She said: "The little ones have been the ones affected throughout Covid. These children didn't get to take part in any of the pre-school activities they would've been able to had they been born outside of that time. All of that social interaction with other children, losing that will have an affect on their learning as they get a bit older.
