@Laura Isi at this stage there are no accounts you can set up. I would however look into whether you are eligible for tax free childcare or 15 hours funded childcare from 9 months. I would start considering different childcare options and what it is that you really want from a childcare provider, how you want your child raised, what rules (ie naughty step, reward charts, thoughts on approaching behaviour etc) so you know what is important to you. Then I would go and meet with providers. Some have year long waitlists so it can be a good idea to look around so you know what is in your area, even if you don't plan to require childcare for a year.

Concerning childcare. I have a newborn, are there accounts I need to start opening or things I need to start doing to prepare?
