Nursery Education Grant
If your child is 3 or 4 yrs old they are entitled to 12 ½ hours free childcare per week for up to 38 weeks a year (certain conditions apply).  Educare will claim the appropriate amount of funding on your child’s behalf which in turn will reduce your monthly fees. 
The Manager at your chosen Educare Nursery will be happy to explain how the scheme works.
Childcare Vouchers
Parents can make significant savings on the cost of their nursery fees by taking advantage of the Governments Childcare Voucher Scheme.
The scheme is very easy to participate in and involves you receiving part of your remuneration (up to a maximum of £55 per week or £243 per month) as Childcare Vouchers.  This amount of your salary does not attract Tax or National Insurance contributions and therefore becomes a saving for you, leaving you with more disposable income.
The amount you save is dependent on your individual circumstances;

  • A basic rate taxpayer (20%) can save up to £904* per year
  • A higher rate taxpayer (40%) can save up to £1,196* per year

*   Subject to individual circumstances.
What’s more, both parents can request to take part of their remuneration as Childcare Vouchers, therefore doubling the saving.
Please request an information sheet on how Educare administers Childcare Vouchers from the Manager of your chosen Nursery.
