Just wondering what is involved in the nursery settling in process/ what to expect? Thanks
Could someone advise how claiming the money for childcare costs works? If I make the claim for the first time on 21st August and, when do I need to claim for childcare costs? Do I need to submit the invoice at the same time I make a claim? How long before the payment date I need to submit the invoice for childcare c...
Does anyone know how to set this up please?? I’ve just got my first invoice - she starts next month so assuming it’s ‘pay month in advance’ I know I’ll be entitled - do I have to be back to work before I can set up?? Any help/ advice be greatly appreciated thank you 🫶🏽

Can anyone recommend any good haven holiday parks for us please. We've been to Hastings but want to take our daughter to another after the kids go back to school as it'll be cheaper. My friend recommended one in North Wales but the journey is a bit long with a 16 month old (will be nearly 18 months when we go) T...
I’m going to be a SAHM with my 2 month old baby while my boyfriend goes back to work full time to support us. I would like to help our family financially, so I’m thinking about nannying for another family at my home so that I can still be with my baby. Anyone have recommendations on where I can post an ad for this? ...
Hi there! My husband and I are new to Dallas and we just opened an in-home Montessori school for ages 2.5-6. We are trying to pick up our enrollment and need help spreading the word about our opening! If you know of anyone who needs care for their little one please spread the word! Or if you have a little one feel f...
Hi mamas just want some clarity really. If I’m already on universal credit and get help with childcare cost will I still be eligible to apply for the 15hrs funding? Or I won’t be qualified for that?
Hi, Baby isn’t born yet, but is due end of September. I’ve been working out how much annual leave I can take at the end of my maternity leave, so I know when my little one needs childcare from. Two questions I guess. Firstly, the funded childcare confuses me. I’m hoping we can get little one in a nursery for Septe...
i have a son he’s 1y.o. and i’m tryna put him in a day care so i can go to work but it’s too expensive and i can’t afford it. i heard about the texas health benefits that you gotta apply and they can give you a discount for the day care and help you find a job. Can someone tell me how can i apply, where can i go? it...
Hi all, as the 15 hour funded hours are coming in September, funding does not cover meals. So I am curious what other nurseries are charging for this all over the country. My son’s nursery: £10 per 5 hour session = £30 for 15hours. 📍Cheshunt
Hey! Thought I’d ask but my son starts nursery in September he will be going for 13 hours a week. I’ve applied for the 15 hours free childcare but how does it work when he’s only going 13 hours a week?
Hey! Might be silly but my health visitor was pretty useless and just said she’s not sure what support there is now a days and just to look it up online 😒😑. I know England you get 15 hours free but that’s not a thing here so it would just be tax free childcare?. My daughter will only be in childcare 2 days a week…
Does anyone know if you qualify for the free childcare hours as well as getting universal credit money towards childcare?
What happens at these? We have one tomorrow morning for an hour, I've asked them a million questions already and I've forgotten if I'm meant to stay or leave her? I know I'll find out when I get there but I'm just curious!
I know its abit early but when do we apply for nursery in a primary school is it next year or the year after
Long story short, we enrolled our 1 year old to the nursery Tomberries in Southfields (maybe you know it and any info is more than welcome). They are stating on their website that their Ofsted rating is “Good” (apparently it was until the last inspection which was uploaded on the government website on 15th July 2024...
Hello all, my little one is due in October and I thought I would start doing some research on nurseries and childminders. Does anyone have any recommendations for any in South Liverpool? Thank you so much!
I’m wanting to put my daughter into nursery twice a week so that I can go back to part time work. I was hoping I’d be able to get 15 hours free childcare however I’m not eligible for getting it because I’m not working. But as a single parent I cannot work as my daughter is not in childcare. I cannot afford to pay fo...
