TAX CREDITS


Child Tax Credit 

​The Child Tax Credit is available to families who have an income of up to £58,000 per year (up to £66,350 if you have a child under one). 9 out of 10 families are eligible for this tax credit and it is paid in addition to Child Benefit. There is also a higher payment available for families with at least one child under one year old and for families with children that have a disability. Child Tax Credit is paid directly into the bank of the main carer.

CHILDCARE VOUCHERS


Save Tax and N.I.


If your employer operates a childcare voucher scheme, you can save National Insurance and Income Tax. By registering for your employer's scheme, up to £55 a week can be deducted from your salary and used to provide childcare vouchers for the same amount. This amount, which is deducted from your gross salary, is then exempt from National Insurance and Income Tax. The vouchers are redeemable against the cost of the childcare that you normally have to pay for

This means that if you are a standard rate taxpayer you will save £916 and higher rate taxpayer will save £1195 per year. As these savings are per parent hence two parents paying by vouchers can save up to £2390 per year!

Voucher providers


We accept vouchers from many providers, but if possible, we prefer to use one of the following companies:

​

  • Accor Services
  • Computershare Voucher Services (formerly known as Busy Bees)
  • care-4 (Grass Roots Group)
  • Sodexho PASS
​

If your employer uses a different provider, the nursery manager will liaise with you to make the necessary arrangements.
