Most working parents are entitled to financial support from the Government to assist with their registered childcare costs. This support can reduce the cost of your childcare. There are four main forms of support:

• Tax-Free Childcare
• Universal Credit
• Tax Credits (now closed to new entrants)
• Childcare Vouchers (now closed to new entrants)

Depending on your circumstances, you could save up to 85% on your registered childcare costs.

Additionally, parents in receipt of income-based benefits could receive a grant to assist with upfront childcare costs if they are moving back into work or significantly increasing their hours of work.

Employers For Childcare’s Family Benefits Advise Service can advise you what support you are entitled to, simply give them a call on Freephone 02892 678 200 or email hello@employersforchildcare.org The service is free, impartial and confidential, and you could save a lot of money.
