Starting from April 2024, existing childcare support will be expanded in phases. By September 2025, most working families with children under the age of 5 will be entitled to 30 hours of childcare support.<\/p>\n

The changes are being introduced gradually to make sure that providers can meet the needs of more families. This means that:<\/p>\n

From\u00a0April 2024<\/strong>, eligible working parents of 2-year-olds will be able to access 15 hours childcare support.<\/p>\n

From\u00a0September 2024<\/strong>, 15 hours childcare support will be extended to eligible working parents of children from the age of 9 months to 3-year-olds.<\/p>\n

From\u00a0September 2025<\/strong>, eligible working parents\u00a0with a child from 9 months old up to school age will be entitled to 30 hours of childcare a week.<\/p>\n
