‘I was motivated by money –but I love working with kids’ Meet the growing army of ‘grand-nannies’ – retirees who are looking after children to earn extra cash ⤵️
Latest figures from the Office for National Statistics show that nearly 760,000 people aged between 50 and 64 are seeking employment. These are people who would usually be starting their life after work, or taking early retirement, but are returning to the workforce to earn extra cash as inflation hits double-digit figures.
Soulla has a small private pot from her time in broadcasting, along with around £20,000 in a self-invested personal pension . She is not yet drawing a pension. “I will get the state pension before long, too, though I worry about the gaps in my record.” Soulla said: “I’m concerned about being able to retire comfortably. My parents ran a restaurant and mum worked until she was well into her seventies. She just loved people and being active. The moment she stopped, she had a lot of health problems. Working keeps you healthy.”
