Tax-free Childcare

Making Childcare More Affordable with Tax-Free Childcare at Kids World Nursery

At Kids World Nursery, we understand that parents want the best early education and care for their children while managing their daily responsibilities. Our nurturing environment ensures your little ones grow, learn, and thrive with the support of dedicated caregivers.

However, we also know that childcare costs can be a concern. That’s why we want to make sure you’re aware of the Tax-Free Childcare scheme available in the UK, which can help ease financial pressures.

What is Tax-Free Childcare?

Tax-Free Childcare is a government-backed scheme designed to help working families with childcare costs. For every 80p you put into your childcare account, the government adds 20p, covering up to £2,000 per child per year (or £4,000 if your child is disabled).

Who Can Apply for Tax-Free Childcare?

You may be eligible if:

• You (and your partner, if applicable) are working, including being self-employed.

• Your child is under 12 years old (or under 17 if disabled).

• You earn at least the National Minimum Wage but less than £100,000 a year.

• You are not receiving Tax Credits, Universal Credit, or Childcare Vouchers.

• You can also combine Tax-Free Childcare with the 30 Hours Free Childcare scheme if eligible.

How Does Tax-Free Childcare Work?

1. Open an account – Register online at the Government Tax-Free Childcare website.

2. Deposit money – You can add funds as and when needed.

3. Receive a government top-up – For every £8 you pay in, the government adds £2.

4. Use the funds – Pay for your childcare fees at Kids World Nursery and other approved childcare providers.

How Much Support Can You Get?

For example, if your monthly childcare costs are £500, you only need to pay £400, and the government will contribute £100. This can significantly reduce your annual childcare expenses.

How to Pay Kids World Nursery with Tax-Free Childcare?

We gladly accept payments through the Tax-Free Childcare scheme. Please ensure your payment reaches us by the 1st of each month. You will receive a Tax-Free Childcare reference when you register—use this when making payments.
