The Early Childhood Council is warning that some childcare centres will close permanently thanks to the vaccine mandate.
A recent ECC survey shows the no jab, no job policy will lead to nearly half its members losing one teacher, and more than a third will lose up to two teachers.
Chief executive Simon Laube says teacher-child ratios are becoming increasingly difficult to manage for centres.
That means some children will be sent home.
He spoke to Corin Dann.
