Do you accept Tax free childcare?
Tax-Free Childcare Tax-Free Childcare can help reduce the cost of childcare. You’ll need to set up a childcare account. Both you and the government pay into this account, and you then use it to pay your childcare provider. How It Works: • For every £8 you pay in, the government adds £2 • You can receive up to: • £500 every 3 months per child (up to £2,000 per year) • £1,000 every 3 months if your child is disabled (up to £4,000 per year)
Do you use a app to notify parents and carers?
