Childcare Vouchers
We are registered to accept most childcare vouchers as payment. Contact your employer’s HR department to register for their voucher scheme. These will then be deducted from your salary each month and you can then pay your invoice with these.
Tax Free Childcare Scheme
The government have introduced a scheme that allows parents and family to contribute into an account and they then “top up” the funds by 20p for every 80p paid in. For eligibility and details see https://www.gov.uk/government/news/tax-free-childcare-10-things-parents-should-know
If you do not wish to pay for specific consumables, for example because you wish to provide your own, please make your nursery aware so next steps can be discussed.
