I’ve read the message thoroughly. I got a little excited that I had the code and thought I could save £1,320 more than anticipated.
My childminder has put through my code and free hours and given me my invoice for what we owe her. I haven’t yet had any issues or her query it. So I am under the assumption it’s worked
Sadly it won't work until April 🫠😭
Is there an eligibility to avail free childcare hours?
@Shivarchi I’m not sure what you are asking. These free hours are for the children of working parents where both parents work. If you want to find out if you are eligible for any of the childcare options, take a look at the childcare choices website. https://www.childcarechoices.gov.uk/?utm_source=Google&utm_medium=PPC&utm_campaign=Childcare_Choices_24_25&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAowZrsmhuguogho4kGBdCq2dFlksE&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIjbnKqZq3igMVEIpQBh1yZxohEAAYASAAEgIuHPD_BwE
You get the code when you sign up, but you're not actually able to use it until the next term, so it will be April for us. You'll have the same code every time you reconfirm which you have to do every 3 months.
