Childcare Choices for working Parents

From September 2025 and in addition to the support already available, eligible working parents will be able to access 30 hours of childcare per week, over 38 weeks of the year, starting from the term after their child turns 9 months old. This is all part of the government’s Plan for Change to give every child the best start in life by making high-quality early years education and childcare more affordable and accessible for families.

We encourage all parents to find out what they might be eligible for and apply ahead of the 31st August deadline  (to start using their hours from 1st September) by visiting: www.childcarechoices.gov.uk
