Cost of childcare

frefrefre

Hi All,

Can anyone advise on any relief for parents with regards to childcare?
Our situation is we have three children.
One baby, who will be 6 months old in January when my wife goes back to work.
Two kids in infants in primary school.
Obviously we will need full time minder/creche for the 6 month old and a minder for the kids for a few hours after school.
I know the costs will be high, just wondering if there's any relief I can claim. We only returned to Ireland last year.

Thanks in advance.

Have a read of this link, €20 a week susbsidy if it full time and your crèche is registered, most are. There’s a form to fill out and the €20/daily allowance is deducted from your weekly bill.

no subsidy or relief for the after school children but the CCSP scheme from 6 months for the baby. its €20 a week subsidy if you do 5 full days or €4 per day subsidy
