15 and 30 hours childcare support | Childcare Choices

In summary, 30 hours funding is for families that are working (there is a minimum and maximum earnings, to be eligible), and 15 hours funding is for all 3-4 year olds, and for 2 year olds who are receiving additional forms of support.

As we are open for 51 weeks in a year, we will stretch your funding to cover this. This allows you to still be able to attend nursery during the school holidays. Typically for 15 hrs funding, this will cover 2 morning sessions or 3 afternoon sessions. For 30hrs funding, this will cover 5 sessions.

There are also other support schemes to help with childcare costs, the link below will take you to childcare choices, which will provide more information about the different options that are available.
