Apply for funded childcare for your 2-year-old

Once your child turns 3 they will receive the universal 15 hours funded childcare available to all 3 and 4 years-olds.

If you’re a working parent or carer, you may be able to get an additional 15 hours on top of this. This is known as the extended ‘30 hours childcare’ scheme.
