Tax-Free Childcare

Tax-free childcare is an additionality (of up to £2,000 per year, per child) for parents to pay for registered childcare.  

Parents and government both pay into a tax-free childcare account which then pays the service. Any money left over in the account when childcare is no longer needed is returned to parent and government.
