The Childcare Support benefit provides funding towards 24 hours of childcare per week for children under the age of 3.
Together with the government top-up, this covers a total of 30 hours of childcare per week. This is available to UK First Generation Members with children aged 0-3 years and they must be registered with the Trust.
Childcare support can significantly help a family by reducing the financial burden of childcare costs, allowing parents to return to work, study, or pursue training opportunities.
To be eligible you must have a government Tax-Free Childcare account and your childcare must be with a government registered childcare provider. A maximum of £560 per month is available, paid on a quarterly basis, until your child’s 3rd birthday.
To find out more and to apply for this benefit, visit Childcare Support in the Member Benefits section of the eaga Trust website.
