I was worried about new childcare arrangements and its got high limit earn up to 150k but both parents have to be working.
Im guessing from this article the current childcare voucher scheme being phased out
www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-21833929
where exactly are these term time jobs and cheap flexible childcare.
where are all these jobs that dont seem to require person to be fully flexible.
had 1st in 2006 went back full time when she was one in 2007.
fulltime place 52weeks nursery was 9000 a year you can claim relief up to 6k.
used vouchers
quit work after no 2 used vouchers for preschool education who had reduced to 1day a week doing nursery.
child no 2 started 1day a week from 18months and nursery been really good for her development. its £40 a day so 160 on 4week month.
husband used couchers as he works fulltime saves us a little.
child 2 now gets 15hour funding which helps.
was hoping to start child no 3 and use childcare vouchers now looks like cant do that and might have to wait until fnding term after 3rd birthday which think is bit late.
To make matters worse child no 2 has september birthday so missed this sept school year by 16days so have year extra paying childcare.
we lucky we dident lose child benefit as at moment we below 50k
we lost £10 a week childcare tax credits last april.
feel sorry for sahm mum whos husnand earns over 50k loses cb and now childcare vouchers yet they say preschool education is important and good for educational outcomes.
we very much feeling squeezed middle tonight as we just about get by each month as we privatly rent too.
