Help for parents with childcare costs and the expansion of free entitlement
Working parents of children may qualify for tax free childcare, where for every £8 parents put in, the government pays £2.
All children are eligible for 15 hours free entitlement from the term after their third birthday. Working parents may be eligible for 30 hours entitlement.
Some two year olds may qualify for FEET funding which is means tested.
From April 2024, working parents of 2 year olds may be eligible for 15 hours free entitlement from the term after their second birthday.
From September 2024, working parents of children from 9 months may be eligible for 15 hours free entitlement from the term after they turn 9 months.
From September 2025, working parents of children from 9 months may be eligible for the extended 30 hours free entitlement.
All information is now on the childcare choices website, and parents can put in details to see if you qualify.

Visit from Mr Plod
We’ve reintroduced our parent rota, and we were very lucky to be visited by one of the Mummy’s and Mr Plod the pet tortoise! We watched him have a walk around the playschool garden and he ate some of his lettuce. Initially some of us weren’t sure about giving him a stroke, but by the time he went home, we’d all gained the confidence to very gently stroke his shell.
