Tax Free Childcare and Childcare Vouchers

Tax Free Childcare is an online payment account topped up by the Government which parents use solely to pay their childcare costs.  For every £8.00 that families pay in, the Government will make a top up payment of £2.00 up to a maximum of £2000 per child per year (or £4000 for disabled children).  It is available for children under 12 years old (under 17 years for disabled children) and can be used to contribute towards your Nursery fees.   To be eligible parents must be in work (including self-employment) and you can get tax free childcare at the same time as 30 hours free childcare if you are eligible for both.
