What is Tax-Free Childcare?
Tax-Free Childcare is a government scheme designed to help working parents with childcare costs. It is available to working parents of children aged 12 and under (17 and under if the child has a disability). The scheme allows eligible parents to set up an online childcare account, which you can pay in to whenever you like and can be used to pay your childcare provider directly.
How can I use Tax-Free Childcare?
The scheme can be used to pay registered childminders, nurseries, nannies, after-school clubs and play schemes.
How does the Tax-Free Childcare scheme work?
For every £8 you pay into your account, the Government will pay in £2, up to a maximum of £2,000 per year per child (£4,000 if the child has a disability). The amount you save with Tax-Free Childcare will depend on your childcare costs. To receive the full £2,000 benefit from Tax-Free Childcare you must have childcare costs of £10,000 per child per year. If your childcare costs are lower than this, your saving will be less than £2,000.
