Information for Parents

Childcare information for parents

The best type of childcare for you depends on your family situation and the needs of your child.

  • Allow yourself plenty of time to choose the right childcare for you. If you are planning to return to work after the birth of your baby you should begin your search before the baby is born.
  • Some childcare providers have a waiting list for places so it is important to think ahead about the type of care and provision that you would like to use.
  • Registered Childminders, Day Nurseries, Out of School Clubs, Playgroups and Cylch Meithrin are all registered and inspected by Care Inspectorate Wales.
  • You can also visit Care Inspectorate Wales for more help and advice on how to choose the right childcare for you and your family.
  • About nursery and pre-school education (gov.wales)

 

Visit www.childcarechoices.gov.uk for further information on all government childcare offers including the childcare grant or bursary. 

You can also use the Childcare Calculator to work out which government support best suits your circumstances.
