Free childcare Parents in England can get free childcare of up to 30 hours as week for children aged between nine months and four years old. However, this is limited to 38 weeks of the year to coincide with term times. But if you need childcare during the school holidays, you can often stretch out the help by taking fewer hours over more weeks. This means summer holidays costs won't come as such a shock. Ask your childcare provider about stretching out the help. Currently, the exact amount you can get depends on your child's age and circumstances, whether you're working and your income. If your child is nine months to two years old, you can get 15 hours per week of free childcare. Three to four-year-olds can get 30 hours per week for free. But from September this year, all eligible working parents of children aged nine months up to three years will be able to access 30 hours of free childcare a week. If you don't work, you might still be eligible for the same amount of free childcare if your partner is working and you're on carer's leave or if you get any of the following benefits: Incapacity Benefit Severe Disablement Allowance Carer's Allowance Limited Capability for Work Benefit Contribution-based Employment and Support Allowance You can use a calculator on the gov website here to work out how much you can get. If you claim Universal Credit, you might be able to get help towards most of your child care costs. Parents claiming Universal Credit can now get up to £1,014.63 a month for one child and £1,739.37 for two or more kids. The money is used to cover up to 85 per cent of their childcare costs. 18. Tax-free childcare Working parents can get hep with childcare costs through tax-free childcare. This is often used to pay for nursery place or after-school clubs. But what you may not realise is that it can be used for a whole host of childcare providers, including those which runs during the school holidays. The government scheme gives £2 free for every £8 put into an account, which is then used to pay providers. Parents can get up to a maximum of £2,000 a year per child or £4,000 if their child is disabled. This can be a huge help in the cost of care, so it's worth looking specifically for childcare providers who accept payments from childcare accounts over the holidays. 19. Child tax credits You can make a claim for child tax credit if you already get working tax credit. The amount you could get depends on when your children were born. If you have two children born after April 6, 2017, you will get a child element worth £3,455 for each kid up to a maximum of two. If one child was born before then you could also get a basic amount called the family element worth up to £545 a year. To claim child tax credit, update your existing tax credit claim by reporting a change in your circumstances online or by phone. 20. Child benefit You can get Child Benefit worth up to £1,335 a year if you're responsible for bringing up a child who is under 16 or under 20 if they stay in education. Child benefit is usually paid every four weeks, but it can be paid weekly if you're a single parent or receiving certain other benefits, like income support. Make sure you're not missing out as it's welcome boost that doesn't stop over the holidays. You can apply for child benefit online by visiting Bear in mind that those who earn more than £60,000 a year have to start paying back some of their children's benefits through the high-income child benefit charge (HICBC). You have to pay back 1% of your child benefit for every £200 of income over this amount. If your income is between £60,000 and £80,000, the tax charge will be 1% of your child benefit for every £200 of income between £60,000 and £80,000. The charge will never be more than the amount of child benefit you receive. If you earn £80,000 or more you have to repay the full amount. 21. Free school uniform You may not be ready to think about back to school, but if you may be able to get help wit the cost of kitting out your kids thanks to the Household Support Fund (HSF).
