I have just finished up on my 26 weeks paid maternity leave and now have to take unpaid maternity leave. I confirmed with my employer I will take a further 9 weeks off unpaid as I have nobody to mind my baby during this pandemic and am unable to work from home as I wouldn’t be able to get any work done as my son takes up all my time. I have looked up and think I am entitled to apply for the convid-19 unemployment payment. Does anyone know if I am entitled to apply for this as I have no childcare? Or is there anything else I should look into? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
