SESSIONS

At Little Acorns Daycare we have a busy daily schedule of activities so to ensure continuity for your child and to give the best learning and care opportunities possible, we have a minimum attendance policy of two full-day sessions per week. Through experience, we have learned that children settle better when they are in the nursery setting for at least two full days; they bond better with their key carers and form closer relationships with their peers.

Tax Free Childcare Scheme

​

We accept all major childcare vouchers & the Government run Tax Free Childcare (TFC) scheme. Tax-Free Childcare (TFC) is an offer from the Government. The TFC means that for every 80 pence you pay for childcare, the Government will add 20 pence. This is equivalent of the tax most people pay – 20% – which gives the scheme its name, ‘tax-free’.

​

You can get up to £500 every 3 months (up to £2,000 a year) for each of your children to help with the costs of childcare. This goes up to £1,000 every 3 months if a child is disabled (up to £4,000 a year).

​

Please be aware… you cannot claim both Tax-Free Childcare and Tax Credits. If you join the Tax-Free Childcare scheme your Tax Credits will be terminated and you will remain ineligible while you are still a member of the scheme. This affects both Child Tax Credit and Working Tax Credit.
