What is tax-free childcare?

Tax-Free Childcare is a government initiative designed to help working families with the cost of childcare. It’s affordable and accessible to those who need it most.

It’s designed to be a simple and convenient way to save on costs when registering your child at nursery and is accepted across all our nurseries.


So how does it work?


For every 80p you pay into your Tax-Free Childcare account, the government will add an extra 20p, up to a maximum of £2,000 per child per year, or £4,000 for children with additional needs.

This means that for every £8 you pay in, you’ll get £2 back from the government.


What are the benefits ?


It helps families save money on childcare costs, by adding government funds to the amount they pay in. This is done automatically, and you can use the money when it shows as ‘available’.

It’s also easy to use and doesn’t require complicated forms or extra benefits to be claimed.

For more information, feel free to speak to our qualified and passionate nursery team by using the contact details on our nursery webpages, or to head straight to the application, visit the ‘Apply for tax-free childcare’ page on www.gov.uk
