Parents can get up to 15 hours per week (570 hours per year) funded early learning for their 2 year old child if they receive some additional forms of support.
Giving a 2-year-old a head start in learning can be great for their future. Early years education can help little ones make friends and play, developing their social and practical skills in a safe place that works alongside what parents do at home. This early start can set the child up for a lifetime of learning and success.
Eligible parents can get early learning from the term after their child turns 2.
Families can:
- check the eligibility criteria on the Best Start in Life website.
- make an application to confirm eligibility and get their approved funding code to take to their childcare provider.
