how it works

open to all working parents

Working parents who have children under 16, or under 17 if disabled, in registered and approved childcare can qualify for childcare vouchers. Vouchers are generally issued by employers as part of a salary package and used as full or part payment towards the cost of childcare fees.

which childcare providers qualify?

childminders, nurseries and play schemes

out-of-hours school clubs

nannies

au-pairs


Unfortunately childcare vouchers cannot be used to pay relatives who care for your children – even if they are registered or approved.

operation

The childcare voucher scheme runs automatically over a 12 month period. You set the amount (maximum £243) of vouchers you would like to receive towards childcare costs. This is then taken from your gross pay and paid direct into your childcare provider's bank account every month. No physical vouchers need be exchanged.

Running the scheme on an automated basis keeps things straight and simple
