Are you are aware the new Childcare offer?

The government has recently introduced a new childcare offer for working parents who have children aged from 9 months to 3 years old. In September 2025 - 30 hours of free childcare support will be available to eligible working parents of children aged from 9 months. For more information, please visit Childcare Expansion

 Every Local Authority has a duty to ensure there is enough childcare in their area to meet parental demand. Completing this survey will provide vital information to ensure that Hertfordshire has sufficient childcare options in place to be able to deliver the additional free childcare from September 2025. This survey is aimed at finding the views of expectant parents and parents with children aged under 3 of the availability of childcare in their local community.
