Financial support towards the cost of wraparound childcare

Providers will set their own fees for wraparound places, so prices will vary. Parents will pay their wraparound childcare provider directly for their child’s place. 

Parents eligible for Tax-Free Childcare or Universal Credit Childcare will be able to use the support to help pay for wraparound care.

Tax-Free Childcare could save eligible parents up to £2,000 per year for children aged up to 11, or £4,000 per year for children aged up to 17 with disabilities.

Universal Credit Childcare could save eligible parents up to 85% of their childcare costs for children aged up to 16. 

To check if you are eligible for Tax-Free Childcare or Universal Credit Childcare, visit the Childcare Choices website.
