Tax-free childcare

This is a government scheme set up to help parent/carers with childcare costs:

  • For every £8 a parent pays in, the government will pay in an extra £2. Parents can receive up to £2,000 per child, per year, towards their childcare costs, or £4,000 for disabled children.
  • To qualify, parents will have to be in work, and each expecting to earn at least £120 a week. Each parent must not have an income over £100,000 per year.
  • Parents must re-confirm their codes every 3 months.
  • Only childcare providers registered with Ofsted can receive Tax-Free Childcare payments.
